ALIAC was founded in 1982 by Captain Geronimo Amurao, a Philippine Airlines pilot when he established a small flying school which he called the "Amurao Flying School". In 1984, this small aviation school has grown to become the "Air Link International Aviation School" under the stewardship of Capt. Amurao, with the help of his wife, Dr. Myrna Tan Vallecer-Amurao. In April 2003, its name was amended to "Air Link International Aviation College". In 2017, Atty. Gomeriano V. Amurao became the new Managing Chairman and President of ALIAC.[1][2]
The college has approximately 3,000 students. The main campus features 28 aircraft, both single and twin-engined, and a hangar next to a classroom building. Another campus, located on the island of Lubang, Occidental Mindoro, provides facilities for intensive training for both flying and ground students.[3]
The aviation institution offers various degrees for Bachelor of Science in Aviation Major in Flying as well as an array of other aviation-related programs such as Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Aircraft Maintenance Technology, Bachelor of Science in Avionics Technology, Bachelor of Science in Office Administration Major in Airline Management and Bachelor of Science in Tourism Management including Private Pilot Courses and Commercial Pilot Courses. ALIAC is the only senior high school in the Philippines, which offers STEM aviation strands - Aircraft Maintenance and Avionics Technology on top of its multiple Tech-Voc courses. Meanwhile, the college is also operating its complete preschool (Nursery, Kindergarten and Preparatory Courses), complete elementary (Grades 1 to 6), and complete Junior High School (Grades 7 to 10).[4]
