Board of Control

The AIPM Board of Control (BOC) is effectively the Governing Council of the AIPM. The Institute reports to the BOC on all its core business (higher education and executive development programs for senior police officers from all police jurisdictions in Australia and New Zealand). The BOC approves the AIPM’s Corporate Plan, Annual Business Plans, Annual Reports, Annual Budgets and Financial Reports. The BOC also provides direction on all aspects of the AIPM’s operation, and relies on the AFP to provide the corporate governance framework for operation of the corporate services functions of the AIPM.

The permanent Chair of the BOC is the Commissioner of the AFP, currently Mick Keelty. The Board appoints a Co-Chair to assist the Chair, and this position rotates amongst the Board members. Currently the Co-Chair is Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon of Victoria Police.

The current membership of the AIPM BOC is:

• Mick Keelty APM, Chair BOC, Commissioner Australian Federal Police
• Simon Overland APM, Chief Commissioner Victoria Police
• Bob Atkinson APM, Commissioner Queensland Police Service
• Mal Hyde APM, Commissioner South Australia Police
• Darren Hine APM, Deputy Commissioner Tasmania Police
• Andrew Scipione APM, Commissioner New South Wales Police
• Karl O’Callaghan APM, Commissioner Western Australia Police
• Howard Broad, Commissioner New Zealand Police
• Paul White APM, Commissioner Northern Territory Police

Board of Studies

The AIPM has a Board of Studies (BOS), which provides advice to the BOC (and the AIPM directly) on all educational matters at the AIPM. The BOS is composed of nine nominees of the Commissioners (one from each jurisdiction) who are typically the Heads of the relevant jurisdictional Police Academies or Directors of Human Resources for the jurisdiction. In addition, there are three external members of the BOS; these include a senior academic, the Commandant of the Australian Defence Forces Command and Staff College, and a senior representative from the Australasian Fire Authorities Council (AFAC).

The current membership of the AIPM BOS is:

• Assistant Commissioner Barbara Etter – Western Australia Police.  (Chair)
• Assistant Commissioner Kevin Scott – Victoria Police.  (Deputy Chair)
• Assistant Commissioner Paul Jevtovic – Australian Federal Police
• Assistant Commissioner Michael Corboy – NSW Police Force
• Assistant Commissioner Mark Payne – Northern Territory Police
• Chief Superintendent Michael Cornish – South Australia Police
• Chief Superintendent Paul Doyle – Queensland Police
• Commander Geoff Smith – Tasmania Police
• Superintendent Michael Wilson – New Zealand Police
• Professor Lorraine Mazerolle – Griffith University
