The
AAIBS was established specifically to assist schools in Australasia, providing a network of professional support, information and service. Schools new to the IB programme will find such assistance particularly useful.
The Association also organises an annual conference in conjunction with workshops run by IBAP, and produces a variety of support materials.
The AAIBS Standing Committee is committed, amongst other goals, to represent and support the various IB groups and networks across Australasia. There are now many groups in Australasia and it is important that these networks have a united voice in lobbying with Educational Authorities, Tertiary Admissions Centres, Universities and the IB and AAIBS wants to work with an support these IB school networks.
