Addressing the media, Priyanka Bajaj, Dean and Co-Founder of AIEM, expressed, “We are the first institute in India to offer a comprehensive mix of classroom training, an experience lab, fieldwork, and internships. Our unique three-year or two-year diploma programs effectively incur no out-of-pocket expenses for students, as the amount spent on the course is offset by earnings from our paid internship program and on-field training.”
Vikash Bajaj, CEO and Co-Founder of AIEM, shared his journey, stating, “My initiation into event management lacked formal training. While the experience was invaluable, I envisioned a smoother path for the next generation. This vision led to the establishment of our institute – to provide structured, comprehensive education in event management.”
Nitin Agarwal, Director and Co-Founder of AIEM, highlighted the institute’s ambitious expansion plans, aiming to establish over 50 franchises across India within the next two years.
