In order to help as many Australians as we can achieve the unique outcomes of our MBA, and as a direct response to the COVID-19 pandemic, AIM has created the Australian Leaders Scholarship to help people upskill and emerge from this crisis as even stronger managers and leaders.

This scholarship fund provides $500 towards each unit studied and is available for new students who begin study in the AIM Business School MBA program in the upcoming June, July, and September intakes.

To qualify for this scholarship, students must meet the existing entry criteria plus one additional year of management experience. They must also be able to demonstrate current or future impact from the COVID-19 pandemic.  Examples of this impact include, but are not limited to:

• Reduction in work hours, salary, or earning potential
• Loss of employment
• Negative impact on business turnover
• Increased uncertainty within the industry in which you work

Covering theoretical, practical and strategic applications in business management, the Graduate Diploma in Management is an excellent way to formalise the skills and experience gained in your career.

You will obtain a well-rounded understanding of up-to-date business best practices, with the opportunity to progress toward your MBA upon completion of this qualification.

Available for study online or a blend of both on-campus and online options at one of AIM Business School’s many locations, this course fits easily around the schedule of a busy manager.

An excellent opportunity to hone your management skillset and gain a formal qualification, the Graduate Certificate in Management is designed for those with industry experience who would like to take the next step in their career.
