What organizations have QM recognized Implementation Plans?
Implementation plans are a valuable strategy to spread the adoption of QM throughout a program or institution. If your institution or program has made a commitment to implement the most recent edition of the entire Quality Matters Rubric across your online/blended curriculum over an extended period of time, you are eligible to apply for Quality Matters Recognition of your implementation plan.

Elements of a Recognized Plan

Process
