SUMMARY:AIMI: Certified Innovation Professional (CIP) Programme
DESCRIPTION:Certified Innovation Professional (CIP) Programme — Expressions of Interest Now Open\nExpressions of Interest are now open for the next intake of the Certified Innovation Professional (CIP) Programme\, delivered by the Australian Innovation Management Institute (AIMI) in partnership with the Global Innovation Management Institute (GIMI). \nMost organisations do not struggle with ideas. They struggle with execution: unclear decision rights\, inconsistent evaluation\, and no repeatable system to move from concept → pilot → scale. The CIP Programme is designed to professionalise how innovation gets done—so leaders and teams can deliver outcomes with rigour\, pace\, and accountability. \nWhy CIP\n\nGrounded in GIMI’s globally recognised innovation management framework and toolset—widely regarded as global best practice for building repeatable\, measurable innovation capability across organisations.\nISO 56001 aligned\, supporting capability consistent with the emerging global standard for Innovation Management Systems.\n\nWhat past participants said (AIMI inaugural cohort\, 2025)\n\n“GIMI’s Certified Innovation Professional courses (delivered by AIMI) put participants in an engaging and practical learning environment… You learn and deliver at the same time with others. A brilliant way to learn and to test how the GIMI tools can be applied in a real-world sense for practical outcomes.”— Sean Webb\, Manager – Innovation and Partnerships\, CBH Group \n\n\n“I participated… hoping to learn methods to continue my innovation efforts in a consistently scalable and repeatable manner\, and the GIMI frameworks provide exactly that… Repeatable and scalable.”— Eric Berrill\, Co-Founder & Chief Innovation Officer\, núaTECH \n\nWho it’s for\n\nInnovation and transformation leaders and practitioners\nStrategy\, PMO\, product\, digital\, and operations leaders\nEmerging innovation champions who need a solid toolkit and common language\n\nWhat you’ll get\n\nPractical tools and methods you can apply immediately\nA structured approach to building innovation capability (not just running projects)\nA globally recognised credential that signals professionalism in innovation\n\nExpressions of Interest are now open. If you’re ready to move beyond innovation activity and build a system that delivers outcomes\, register your interest for the next intake.
