In 1991, the provincial and territorial ministers of education, as the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada (CMEC), agreed to undertake the School Achievement Indicators Program (SAIP). Alberta Education is continuing its participation in the program with the assessment of mathematics knowledge and skills of 13- and 16-year-old students. In all, 220 Alberta schools were selected to participate – 110 for 13 year olds and 110 for 16 year olds.
