Established in 1974 as the Aktobe Higher Civil Aviation School (AVLUGA), it originally served the purpose of training specialists (mainly pilots) in the field of aviation. Until 1996, the AVLUGA served under this name and was renamed after the only two-time Kazakh Hero of the Soviet Union Talgat Begeldinov in July 2003. As of 2013, the institute has produced over 160 lieutenants in the air defence forces, and has trained cadets from foreign countries such as Hungary and Afghanistan.[1][2][3][4]
