    History of Cutting-Edge Education

    APM stands for Australian Progressive Marketing and was pioneered by industry professionals in 1987. Their vision was to transform school leavers into work-ready professionals by offering them the forward-focused skills needed to advance or change their marketing careers. In order to achieve these goals APM developed industry-specific courses that differentiated dramatically from everything else out there.
    20 years on and APM continues to focus on industry involvement to deliver business courses that offer a distinct competitive edge. For that reason APM remains at the forefront of business education and prepares emerging business leaders for success in the increasingly challenging business environment.

    Committed to Outstanding Graduate Outcomes

    Every student has the opportunity to benefit from the APM Industry Placement Program. The internship reinforces our strong ties to industry and remains a keystone to the success of APM graduates.
    Today's employers demand people with advanced business skills that meet the changing needs of the business world. That is why APM courses have evolved since the college was launched and now delivers a combination of Vocational and Higher Educational qualifications.
