Music Industry and Performing Arts Program
Beginning as the Sydney Guitar School in 1968, the Australian Institute of Music has grown into a major player in education and training for the Australian music industry, performing arts and entertainment management fields. Being an independent institute, AIM is not a music university, however AIM Music Courses deliver accredited music tuition and unique industry relevant programs, designed to equip students for successful lifelong creative careers, across music diplomas, music degrees and graduate music studies.

AIM offers a wide range of undergraduate and graduate music courses, each with its own Head of Department and professional teaching staff, in addition to theatre and acting through the Australian Academy of Dramatic Art, AIM High School, individual lessons and Young AIM music tuition.

Professional Music Teaching Staff
