Moreover, in December 2011, the academy has signed a partnership with this university and the École des Ponts ParisTech for the creation of an executive aviation MBA at Casablanca[6] in March 2012.[7] The Federal Aviation Administration is also a partner of AIMAC, in particular for the launch of common e-learning courses.
The academy has been chosen by Concordia University[8] for the development of a regional center of this Canadian university at Casablanca to provide MBA courses in aviation.
