In February 2012, the Institute of Health & Management (IHM) was established. Since then, IHM has been recognised as a higher education institution. The Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency of the Australian Government grants this status.
The Institute of Health & Management (IHM) was formed in 2015 and focuses on the development and delivery of health-related higher education courses.
