why study at asi?
Top class facilities, lecturers & industry links
Most qualifications are broadly equivalent to two-three A Levels and provide enough UCAS points to progress onto higher level study, including our own ASI Higher Education programmes.
All of our qualifications have been designed in partnership with aviation industry experts and they have been reverse-engineered from specific job roles. This means all of the units within our courses give you the exact knowledge, skills and competencies to be effective in these job roles.
There will also be a number of enrichment opportunities where you will partake in exciting trips and visits as well as hear from industry guest speakers.

Common curriculum
For the first part of Year 1, students on all pathways will study a common curriculum designed to familiarise learners with the aviation industry as a whole.
Employers and industry experts have told us that they need staff that understand and appreciate the knowledge skills and competencies of a range of job roles across aviation. This level of broad understanding will make our graduates more effective in their careers when they progress.
Our curriculum is designed to unite and empower young people, building your confidence so you can go out there and achieve your dreams, no matter where you’re from or what your background is.
You’ll be mixing with a new crowd and taking on fresh challenges together. Before you know it, you’ll be rooting for each other.

Talk to your tutors and progress coaches. It is common for students to have second thoughts about their choice. It may be a case of reassurance for upcoming units or switching to a course that's a better fit for you.
We have a 45 day leniency period at the start of term that can allow you to switch. This will depend on course capacity and individual GCSE grades.
