Tinka,
ReplyDeleteThe position of a quality review assessor actually sounds really interesting to me as well! In Pennsylvania, we use QRIS for the Keystone Stars program. I was involved in going through this as a child care center (which was really tough), but now that I will have my Master's degree, I think this position would be great to challenge my thinking. Thank you for bringing this up. I'm so excited to see all these new organizations and job opportunities.
