The Global Centre for Work-Applied Learning (GCWAL) is an independent organisation that exists within the Australian Institute of Business. [16]

In December 2012, AIB signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Middlesex University to allow both institutions to work together to advance work-applied and work-based learning research. This collaboration led to the inaugural Work-Applied Learning for Change conference, where the two institutions partnered to present a conference on the techniques of Work-Based Learning (WBL). In 2015, AIB in partnership with Emerald Group Publishing launched the Journal of Work-Applied Management. [17] [18]
