Is this Membership right for you?

The CPE Membership benefits individuals and organizations that are interested in improving the quality of their non-credit, professional training, and/or personal development courses. Using the CPE Rubric—along with MyQM review tools—you can evaluate courses and see what needs to be improved in order to meet QM Standards. You can also request Official Reviews by QM, which can lead to receiving QM Certification marks for courses that meet QM Standards. This will enable you to create and sustain a successful CPE program that ensures maximum ROI and delivers the results you expect.

If you are a current QM Member with a Higher Ed or K-12 Subscription, you can add the CPE Rubric to your membership with a supplemental membership. Individuals who purchase an Individual QM Membership can choose the CPE Rubric and access it to do Self Reviews in MyQM.
