Till 1999 there was no authorized Aeronautical Institute in Bangladesh to give formal education in this field. Till that time Bangladesh air lines training center was the only such training organization which use to give training to its own aeronautical personnel. For this purpose this organization runs various courses of training on aeronautical engineering. In 1999 Aviacon Institute of Aeronautics has established. Its aim is organizing various courses for Aircraft Maintenance Engineer. At present this organization is offering courses for Experienced Services Personnel and for BASIC AME License Course Program and it is now in operation with its new name ‘Aeronautical Institute of Bangladesh’(AIB). This is now only CAAB approved Diploma (4 years) of BTEB awarding institute in Bangladesh.
