Mr. Gerry Labossiere, President of AIS Assessment & Intelligence Systems Inc. (AIS) announced today that the Yukon Territorial Government has selected AIS to provide the Territory with both the Mastering the RAI 2.0 and the Mastering the RAI HC computer based instructional systems to assist them in implementing Mastering RAI 2.0 and with the ongoing training for Mastering RAI HC throughout the Territory.

"We believe that one of the keys to successfully implementing the RAI 2.0 and RAI-HC in our facilities and our Home Care Program is to ensure standardized and consistent training of staff" stated Kathy Fredrickson, Professional Coordinator for Yukon Continuing Care. "In combination with group theory and practice sessions, the Mastering RAI solutions will allow Yukon Continuing Care to provide high quality, efficient and cost effective education to assist staff with the initial and most importantly, ongoing MDS educational needs."

The Mastering the RAI series is a computer based multimedia instructional system that integrates the expert advice of instructional designers, certified MDS trainers, leading MDS researchers and proven instructional material. Mastering the RAI is based on an instructional framework that combines the principles of situated cognition, reflective practice and motivational design to strengthen the links between the learner's experience and day-to-day experience in the workplace. Target audiences include nurses, social workers, other multidisciplinary team members, MDS instructors, administrators, policy makers and researchers. The learning is situated within real life scenarios through the use of video and audio clips of clinical interactions and case studies.

The MDS 2.0 is a Minimum Data Set tool used for collection, analysis, and submission of continuing care assessments.

AIS is pleased to welcome the Yukon Territorial Government to its ever growing family of clients across Canada and the United Kingdom.

Health eTraining International Inc. is a company specializing in research-based instructional design to provide ongoing content and product development of the Mastering the RAI.
