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

Quality Matters-managed course reviews
and an array of
