AITAM – an unique organization in the sense that the very foundation and the objective of this organization was to focus on human resource development in Health and clinical services. Based upon the recommendations and findings of a training needs assessment, initially Family Planning Clinical Services Improvement Training Project was developed in 1991 as a joint venture of USA1D and its five cooperating agencies (CA’s), such as, AVSC (ENGENDERHEALTH) International, Pathfinder International, Family Planning Services and Training Center (FPSTC), Family Planning Association of Bangladesh (FPAB) and The Asia Foundation (TAF). Later AITAM has developed itself to a major training institute, not only in training but also developed expertise in curriculum development including Training needs assessment, Training follow up, Training impact evaluation and also in training aids and training materials development.
At the end of the project, in 1994 AITAM emerged as independent organization started providing health and population service initially in the urban area through community based static and satellite clinics mainly focusing on reproductive and preventive care and continued the RH training courses for the service providers as before.
A1TAM emerged as a national NGO and active in the health and population sectors of the country for the last 15 years. Since the inception attention was given to have an ideal and quality service in Health and population sector.
