Welcome to Our
Online Graduation Acknowledgement
Graduation is an important rite of passage for all tertiary students and is the culmination of their hard work and dedication. This year COVID-19 means we are unable to hold a traditional graduation ceremony where students and their loved ones come together in person to celebrate their academic achievements.
Instead, AIS has decided to recognise our 30th anniversary annual graduation online and has created a wonderful presentation to mark this significant occasion. We are extremely proud of our students’ success so we arranged to take an official photograph of individual graduates in their academic regalia while abiding by all COVID-19 restrictions to keep everyone safe.
Over 180 graduates have been photographed and are celebrated in the online presentations below. Each graduate’s name and the qualification awarded ‘in absentia’ are acknowledged by our CEO and Academic Registrar, Richard Smith.
All students eligible to graduate are recorded as graduating in absentia in the Graduation 2020 booklet.
