AZIMUTH
CHECK
FACTSHEET
What is it?
The Azimuth Check is a self-assessment
tool that measures Soldiers’ level of overall
fitness across the five dimensions of personal
readiness—physical, emotional, social,
spiritual, and family—in order to promote self-
awareness and growth. Developed by the U.S.
Army Resilience Directorate, it is an updated
version of the Global Assessment Tool and a
core component of the ArmyFit website.
How does it work?
The Azimuth Check takes an average of 12 minutes to complete. It is:
• Confidential
• Online and mobile-friendly
• An annual requirement for Soldiers
Upon completion, Soldiers receive customized feedback for each
dimension of strength. This includes a graph comparing the Soldier’s
overall and dimension scores relative to other Soldiers by career field
and by Army Component (Regular Army, Army National Guard, or
Army Reserve).
Leadership reports are also generated and provide the completion
percentages of the Azimuth Check at individual Soldier level as well
as the unit level. The unit profile gives leaders an overall look at unit
performance. Unit average scores are displayed in comparison to
the Army as a whole in four domains: work environment, emotional
health, social relationships, and lifestyle behaviors.
What does it do?
The Azimuth Check equips Soldiers with information about their current level of resilience and well-
being, promoting self-awareness and growth. Along with an individual score, the tool also provides
Soldiers with specially curated articles, videos, mobile apps, infographics, and other resources to
help address their personal resilience needs identified in the assessment.
