Dr. White's Web Design Course Achieves QM Certification

01/16/2013

Dr. Sylvia White’s Web Design course (7600:375) received 91 out of 95 points and has achieved Quality Matters Peer Course Review Certification.

In order to meet current Quality Matters review expectations, a course must meet each of the 21 essential standards (standards valued at 3 points). In addition, the course must receive a minimum of 81 (out of 95) points. Courses that successfully meet QM standards are eligible to carry the certification mark. QM certification marks are protected  trademarks. 

The web design was an exceptionally difficult class to put through a QM review given that it is a production course. We think that this is the first of this type of course to go through this process.

Congratulations Sylvia!
