Who we are
It’s time for a change.
The AAAs are the change makers for the administrative profession in Australia. Backed by a board of industry leaders, we are taking steps to transform our profession and create a better future for every administrative role.
Our pillars of Research, Education, Advocacy and Awards are the foundations that help change the narrative around what it means to work within an administrative function or pursue a career in the administrative profession. We no longer allow our industry to be thought of as ‘just the admin’.
We are generating an upheaval in how our industry is perceived and are pushing for the modernisation of policy and a revision of remuneration to reflect the superpowers and diversity of over 160 job titles throughout Australia and the people who represent them.
“It’s not just a job; it’s a career.”
