Frequently Asked Questions

The Penn AIM Institute is designed to be a targeted, applied institute that covers advanced implementation science topics and implementation science grant writing. This institute is perfect for those who have had introductory exposure to the field of implementation science who want to learn more advanced implementation science content in support of designing and executing their own implementation science work. 

The Penn AIM Institute allows those with foundational training in implementation science to engage with more advanced or complicated topics in the field and to obtain feedback as they apply the content to their own work. Asynchronous content developed by world-class faculty in the field of implementation science and its related topics are paired with synchronous opportunities to discuss the material with experienced implementation science instructors in small group formats. The institute is also fully virtual, allowing participants from across the globe to join and connect with a wide range of individuals from similar or different fields. We have offered implementation science programming for ten years, making us one of the oldest implementation science training entities in the country.  

Yes! We have intentionally designed this institute to provide learners with opportunities to refine and obtain feedback on applying implementation science concepts to their own work.

We do not offer scholarships or reduced rates for attendees at this time.
