The Group on Institutional Advancement (GIA) is a professional development group within the AAMC. The GIA is composed of medical school and teaching hospital professionals working in alumni affairs, development, marketing, public affairs, and public relations.

The GIA is the only national institutional advancement group devoted exclusively to issues affecting academic medicine. Its goal is to enhance awareness and support for medical education, health care, and biomedical research. Members have the opportunity to network with colleagues on common challenges and share solutions in advancing medical schools and teaching hospitals.
