The Ministry of Textiles of the Government of India founded the Institute of Apparel Management, a multi-university apparel school, in 2007. Although it has a primary affiliation with the Indira Gandhi National Open University, this institution is multi-university, so some of its certifications also come from other institutions.

The institute has a total student intake of about 210 and offers 3 UG, 2 PG, and 4 short-term certificate programmes.

• A 10+2 diploma or bachelor's degree certificate and a passing score on the entrance exam for the institute are the basic requirements for admission.
• The institute offers short-term international diploma certificate courses that are recognised as HND by a number of nations, including the UK, Argentina, Finland, and other nations with ties to the UK.
• Candidates must take the IAM Aptitude Test (IAM APT), and their exam results count toward their selection.
• Aspiring students must complete the online registration form and pay fees via wire transfer or demand draught (no other modes allowed).
• The merit-listed candidates must appear in front of the interview panel.
