The AIB MBA

All qualifications issued by AIB are equivalent in standing to qualifications issued by any other Australian university. AIB is registered as a higher education provider in Australia by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA). Our qualifications are accredited by TEQSA within the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) and as the AQF is internationally recognised, our qualifications are internationally recognised.

Study the AIB MBA anywhere, anytime to suit your busy lifestyle. At AIB, we proudly put our students first. Always. So rather than expecting you to fit around us, we’ve found innovative ways to make our subjects fit around you and your needs as a working adult.

Does waiting for a new semester to start your MBA seem a bit old-fashioned? We think so. With the flexibility and convenience of 12 start dates every year, it has never been easier to fit study into your life! Now you can start your AIB MBA when it suits you—in your time, so you can fully commit and reach your goals sooner.

The ultimate digital resource for everything you’ll need to successfully complete your MBA. It gives you freedom and flexibility and contains all your learning materials, multimedia and resources, student support facilities, assessment tips and guides plus more.

The AIB MBA is divided into three equal stages: the Graduate Certificate in Management, Graduate Diploma in Management and the MBA. So, if life gets in the way of your MBA studies, your hard work won’t go unrecognised. Subject to meeting certain conditions, you can receive an interim postgraduate qualification and then continue your MBA studies when you are ready.

To help you achieve your career goals faster, the AIB MBA is set up for you to complete in as little as 12 months accelerated. You can earn your first postgraduate qualification – Graduate Certificate in Management – in just 4 months*.

*Course duration is determined by entry pathway and study load. See details.

Each MBA subject has a variety of assessments and can be completed in eight weeks, including a final week to reflect and recharge. Assessment due dates are provided two weeks prior to starting each subject, giving you greater planning power.
