The Master of Business Administration (MBA) has an iconic brand. It signals executive and general management level, high potentials, and those aspiring to take a leadership role in the future.
Professional development at this level requires participants to understand complexity, to analyse, synthesise and interpret information, before applying the knowledge and expertise to their real world circumstances.
Individually, the topics of Strategy, Finance, Operations and People are critical to organisational success. However, they don’t work in isolation and it is the intersection of these elements, The Performance Hot Spot, where each aligns and enables sustained high performance. Throughout the online mini MBA program, participants will be challenged to consider how the topic might best be managed to bring their organisation closer to the Hot Spot.
The mini MBA is a non-accredited professional development program.

The mini MBA is ideal for self-motivated leaders and managers who want to take their career to the next level.
The content has been designed for those looking for immediate results, and don’t want to invest the time needed for a traditional MBA.
Participants should be able to:
The mini MBA is a non-accredited, professional development program, not a formal qualification or degree. It’s designed to give you a taste of what to expect if you ever decided to commit to the full MBA.
You’ll be fine. The requirements aren’t over the top, there is no assessment and you’ll be with other like-minded business people.
The AIM WA mini MBA is run online and you will have access to relevant resources to support you in your study.
There is a requirement to do some pre-reading to help set the context for the seminar content and group discussions. Approximately 2-3 hours of essential pre-reading will be necessary before each the four topics.
No undergraduate qualification is required because the mini MBA is a professional development program and not a higher degree.
Unlike a full Master of Business Administration (MBA), the mini MBA is for anyone who wants more insight into strategy, finance, operations and people.
No, this is a non-accredited program and offers a view into a full MBA.
