    Governed

    Integral Transformation Group is the main national coordinator of this initiative. The plans and programs comes as inputs from "collaborators" of this initiative. As of date, we are concentrating our efforts on 2-4 communities or municipalities chosen as models of quality education. Harmonization of plans, processes, resource decisions, information, actions, results, and analyses to support key organization-wide goals are the key result areas of this initiative. It goes beyond alignment and is achieved when the individual components of an integrated management system operate as a fully inter-connected unit within a coherent whole. We call our initiative (or program): Putting Quality in Education.
