Business Schools Collaborate to Promote Collective Learning through the AIM Targeted Initiative Three Business Schools - at the Universities of Surrey, Kingston and Oxford Brookes - are working together to support early career management researchers with developing research grant proposals. This joint effort has been arranged under the 'targeted initiative' forming part of AIM (Advanced Institute of Management) Research's strategically focused RDI project. Researchers from all three business schools have already taken part in a preparatory workshop. There they formed 'learning sets' for mutual support, and have each stared drafting their proposal. They are being encouraged to continue supporting each other via email. Participants will come together again for a workshop on 30th March 2010. There they will receive expert inputs on developing a convincing argument, and will explore how they could use the knowledge they are gaining to support other novice proposal writers in their business schools. Subsequently, at a final workshop in June 2010, they will work together in their learning sets on finalising their proposals. The targeted initiative enables such advanced training to be delivered in the locality of business schools, creating conditions for fuller participation and more sustainable collective learning than is possible with national provision.
