License to deliver nationally accredited courses
We licence Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) that meet rigorous criteria to deliver one or both of our nationally-accredited courses.
An RTO seeking to become an approved commercial licensee must meet a suite of stringent criteria. The commercial application form explains each of the steps involved in preparing a submission. Numbers approved by AFAC are limited.
Interested RTOs should read the application form first to consider whether their organisation and instructors will meet the eligibility criteria. RTOs and instructor referees will be asked to sign a statutory declaration form to authenticate their advice to us.
If you require general information about how to access the course or its content and design, please contact aiims [@] afac.com.au or call 03 9419 2338 during business hours, AEST or AEDT.
AIIMS online support portal
The AIIMS online support portal has been developed to provide support to RTOs to navigate the changes to processes around the new AIIMS online courses and provides links to a number of support resources. Answers to commonly asked question are also included.
The portal can be viewed at: AIIMS online support portal

- your enhanced reputation
- recognition that your RTO has experienced AIIMS trainers and assessors
- access to our nationally-recognised and industry-endorsed courses
- access to our AIIMS-4 training and support resources at reasonable rates
