To learn more about the extent to which inclusion is addressed in state QRIS models, CEELO conducted research through several methods. An online review of state QRIS websites identified states with QRIS and explored the extent to which criteria relating to inclusion were incorporated. Interviews with national experts were conducted simultaneously to identify innovative, promising models for incorporating inclusive practices substantively in QRIS standards. Finally, several state QRIS administrators were interviewed to determine development and implementation efforts resulting in promising practices to promote inclusion in state QRIS. (author abstract)
