Since its doors were first opened in 1929, PIA has taken pride in the quality of its education programs and the successes of its graduates. Regardless of the program, a PIA education emphasizes hands-on learning. Qualified faculty members strive to present thorough and thoughtful instruction as they blend their practical experiences with new information and techniques. Of equal importance is the list of student services that are provided from the first day of instruction through, and beyond, graduation. PIA’s main campus offers AST degree programs in Aviation Technology. The branch campuses (including one in Myrtle Beach) also offer a diploma or certificate program in Aviation Maintenance Technology.
The Imagine America Foundation is committed to promoting the value of specialized career education and helping students get the hands-on training they deserve. Through conducting surveys, recognizing cutting-edge industry developments, and sharing information, we nurture a robust network of school counselors, workforce development boards, Veterans Affairs offices, and training programs all across the country. |
