Nevada Department of Education Quality Program Review (QPR) Recognition
The Nevada Department of Education (NDE) developed the Nevada Career and Technical Education (CTE) Quality Program Standards (QPS). The program standards are to be used as a model for school districts and charter schools to design, implement, assess, and improve CTE programs. There is an annual Quality Program Review (QPR) process in place to provide recognition to quality CTE Programs in Nevada and recognize effective educators & celebrate their success. The QPR recognition system is structured around individual programs of study and each program of study is scored independently. There are two levels of program recognition and one level of school recognition: Program of Distinction; Program of Excellence; and CTE School of Excellence.
