About AIM

The Australian Institute of Management is not for profit entity which invests its annual surpluses in the creation of education products, alternative education distribution channels and learning support materials.

The sole purpose of AIM is to promote the advancement of education and learning in the field of management and leadership for commerce, industry and government.

Across Australia, AIM adds capacity to managers by providing opportunities to learn, develop know-how and better understand practical management. We do this through a range of services in business and management training, events and seminars, coaching, research and publications, supported by a specialist management bookshop and library services geared to graduate school education.

Early days

On 26 July 1950, 52 businessmen met in Brisbane to lay the foundations for the Queensland branch of the Australian Institute of Management. Originally located in Eagle Street, AIM Queensland took up residence in its current premises in Spring Hill in 1964.

AIM's presence spread throughout the state with regional committees in Maryborough, Mackay, Townsville, Toowoomba and Rockhampton. The Northern Territory branch was established in Darwin in the mid-1970s.

Today there are nine regional centres of AIM that deliver formal and informal learning services to their local communities.

Recently, AIM established an office on the Gold Coast, a facility which supports training, coaching and informal learning.
