After your course has gone through the MSUM ID Process, during which we apply many of the QM principles and standards, you could consider taking your course through the QM review process to earn QM Course Design Certification.
Currently, the Office of Online Learning is offering 1 EDD per course brought through the official QM review process. The cost for the QM review is also covered.
How do I get started?
The following three steps will guide you through the majority of the QM application process.
1 - Get Training
Before engaging in the official review process, we strongly recommend taking QM’s online workshop, Applying the Quality Matters Rubric (APPQMR), to ensure better understanding of the QM standards and review process. You will need to email us for assistance with this registration process and to receive a copy of the QM Rubric Workbook.
2 - Complete a Self-Review
After completing the APPQMR, you should conduct your own QM Self-Review. The self-review process guides you through the same tool reviewers use in an official review to mark standards and provide feedback. This is an opportunity for you to make any necessary last-minute revisions and ensure your course is in tip-top shape before the official review.
3 - Consult with QM Coordinator & Plan for Review
After training and self-review, schedule a time to consult with our campus’ QM Coordinator. During this consultation, you will discuss logistical considerations of the review process, complete the review application (if appropriate), and discuss any questions or concerns.
Need a QM Rubric Workbook?
As subscribing members to QM, we have access to the full annotated rubric through the Self-Review tool (upon login to your MyQM account).
If you would like a hard copy of the Annotated QM Rubric Workbook, send a request to the Office of Online Learning.
