The QM Official Review process provides independent validation of the quality, learner-focused course design found in these courses. Reviews are conducted by QM-Certified Reviewers and use the Quality Matters Rubric and associated Standards, which are based on research and best practices. A course earns the QM Certification Mark once it meets QM Rubric Standards at the 85% threshold or better and meets all Essential Standards. 

The certification is a product of Clarkson’s commitment to high quality course design, excellent faculty and the innovative work of the Teaching & Learning Corner’s instructional design team. 

The course is now listed on the QM directory of certified courses.
