Welcome to Quality Matters
Quality Matters (QM) is a faculty-centered, peer review process designed
to certify the quality of online courses and online components. Sponsored
by MarylandOnline, Inc, Quality Matters has generated widespread interest
and received national recognition for its peer-based approach to quality
assurance and continuous improvement in online education. Originating
from a FIPSE grant, Quality Matters is now a self-supporting organization
offering institutional subscriptions and a range of fee-based services
including Quality Matters-managed course reviews and an array of trainings.
