The next section lists for team leaders and college curriculum managers the specific guidelines that pertain to the following aspects of curriculum development/implementation: planning; leadership, people, and communication; resources; and evaluation. The second half of the document discusses considerations in developing an instrument to monitor program quality throughout the curriculum change process.
