Professional Development


NIA Program

The NIA Program is the NIA’s professional education pathway enabling members’ to progress from Associate (ANIA) level membership to Member (MNIA) and ultimately Professional National Accountant (PNA) level.

The NIA Program consists of two components: a formal postgraduate qualification combined with a mentored work experience component. Completion of the program enables you to obtain a recognised university postgraduate qualification and there are pathways for both TAFE and University Graduates.

  • Members can now choose from a full list of electives at any stage of the program.
