AIM Measurement Support Team: measurement@albertaaim.ca

Measurement is a key component of AIM. Measures provide the means to determine the starting state, assess the progress toward an aim, and determine if the changes are leading to improvements. Faculty members will assist teams in creating meaningful measurement systems that are practical to maintain.

At the request of AIM Faculty the Measurement Support Team has developed new versions of the AIM Tracking and Analysis files. Please note, if you belong to a collaborative that began March 2009 or later you are currently using these new tools.  Alternatively, if you belong to a collaborative that commenced prior to March 2009 and would like to be upgraded to these new tools please contact the AIM Measurement Support Team.

For a more detailed description of these new tools, please click here >>

Regardless of when your collaborative began if you require another Tracking file for continued data collection please contact the AIM Measurement Support Team for assistance.

If you have questions about the available tools and resources please contact the AIM Measurement Support Team.
