Quarterly Reporting:
The quarterly report (survey) is provided by the Purdue Center for Regional Development. To streamline the reporting process, we have shifted from Smartsheet to Qualtrics. Qualtrics is the same platform used by the Purdue Center for Regional Development (PCRD). The aggregated data will be submitted to the Economic Development Administration (EDA) by the Community Engagement Project Governance team.
Semi-Annual Reporting:
FINANCIAL RESOURCES
The Georgia AIM governance team is required to report the progress and deliverables of the eight Georgia AIM projects to the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA). The Financial Management and Monitoring Form is used by coalition members to gather information that will assist Georgia Tech’s Enterprise Innovation Institute in supporting financial stewardship of the projects.
Expense reimbursements: To submit expenses related to Georgia AIM projects (such as mileage), use the Georgia Tech Workday system (GaTech employees) or email Melissa Buchanan with questions.

Dropbox File Storage
Dropbox allows us to store and share files. We request that all coalition members store content related to Georgia AIM in their project folders (that only they have access to). The Enterprise Innovation Institute (EI2 ) project management team will also share content on Dropbox via the “General” folder.

Planning/Promoting Events
When planning an event, we ask that you collect certain demographic information from participants. Our registration tool of choice is Eventbrite, but if a project uses a different tool for event registration, please adhere to the same questions.
HOW TO ADD AN EVENT:
- Double-click on the blue bubble on your event’s day on the calendar.
- The bubble will turn orange and this will open a calendar submission form.
- Enter as many event details as possible. Using this form will also alert Georgia AIM’s Community Engagement Manager and Marketing Strategist, who will reach out for additional information, if needed.
- To further identify your event, add the color that corresponds with your project.
