Anyone who joins the Institute is admitted at the level of AIMM. This level of membership is open to any individual seeking to be part of Australia's largest network of managers.

Associate Fellow (AFAIM)
The grade of Associate Fellow is open to persons who have a record of proven management achievement in a senior management position, such as:

  • a chief executive, general manager or senior functional manager, who delegates authority to several other persons holding positions which require management skills of at least Member level,
    or

Education history is also taken into account when grading a membership application.

  • chief executive or group/chief general manager of an organisation of such complexity as to require the delegation of authority to staff of at least Associate Fellow level,
    or
  • divisional, regional or state general manager in an organisation of such complexity as to require the delegation of authority to staff at Associate Fellow level,
    or

Professional Membership Self Assessment

Membership gradings and grading criteria differ for all professional associations. A specific grading in another association does not necessarily warrant a similar grading in AIM, where criteria is focused on the management content of the job positions rather than technical knowledge and expertise in a variety of other disciplines.

The Institute may take into account other interests such as service to AIM, contribution to the profession of management by teaching, publishing or other relevant activity, service to the community, membership of other associations, or achievement of special recognition by making a distinguished contribution to the management profession.

Serious about your career?

For me, AIM membership is about integrity and networking. As I started from very humble beginnings and have worked for myself for a long time, I have always felt the need to justify what I am doing and why. When I joined AIM it was the first time I felt that my background and experience would be evaluated without a hidden agenda.
