Participants come away with a plan for course improvement so enrolling in the workshop with a pre-developed online course is required. |

| Preparing Your Course to Meet QM Standards: Internal QM Review | Dates are Determined When Contacted by Instructional Designer | This offering allows instructors to have their online or blended course evaluated in detail by an Instructional Designer in preparation for pursuing an official Quality Matters Review.

This internal review process will include face-to-face meetings and detailed written feedback on QM standards along with a timeline and plan for implementing improvements. To receive credit, the course will need to meet all of the essential standards. This will be determined by the Instructional Designer. |
