About Aviation Training Hub
Established in 2011, Aviation Training Hub (ATH) has become one of Pakistan’s leading private-sector technical education institutions, delivering internationally recognised education in aviation, business and computing.
Based in Islamabad within a Higher Education Commission (HEC)-approved academic environment in collaboration with the University of Bolton, ATH combines academic excellence with practical, career-focused learning to prepare students for employment in Pakistan and internationally.
The institution is dedicated to equipping learners with the technical expertise, professional skills and global perspective required to thrive in today’s rapidly evolving industries.
Leading Aviation Education in Pakistan
Aviation Training Hub is widely recognised for its expertise in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering and its commitment to maintaining international training standards.
As the first institution in Pakistan to introduce European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Part-66 examinations and qualifications, ATH has helped shape aviation education within the country.
Today the institution works alongside internationally recognised aviation partners including:
- Air Service Training (United Kingdom)
- Heinze Akademie (Germany)

These partnerships ensure students benefit from globally aligned training, modern facilities and industry-relevant practical experience.
ATH has also administered nearly 30,000 EASA examinations nationwide and has supported more than 500 graduates into successful aviation careers with airlines, maintenance organisations and aviation businesses.
International Qualifications and University Progression
Alongside its aviation programmes, Aviation Training Hub delivers UK Higher National Diploma (HND) programmes in Business and Computing, providing students with flexible pathways towards internationally recognised qualifications.
Students can complete the first two years of study in Pakistan before progressing to final-year top-up degree programmes at universities in Pakistan, the United Kingdom or the United Arab Emirates.
ATH also offers progression opportunities in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering through its collaboration with London Metropolitan University, allowing students to achieve internationally recognised undergraduate degrees while studying locally.
Through these pathways, students gain access to globally recognised qualifications while benefiting from a more affordable and flexible route to higher education.
