Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

DEI at QCS 

Difference is a fundamental part of the global community.  At QCS, we embrace difference as both a source of strength and a responsibility.  By placing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) at the center of our work, we improve outcomes for our communities, our partners, our employees, and our company.

As an organization, QCS is part of a global ecosystem of different cultures, perspectives, and experiences.  This ecosystem continuously changes, and it is our responsibility to help our partners and employees thrive in that landscape. 

These efforts begin when DEI is the starting point for everything we do.  When people thrive, our communities thrive.  By focusing on DEI, we perform better, increase innovation, and address important issues.  QCS is an Equal Opportunity Employer that welcomes partners, employees, contractors, and clients of all abilities and backgrounds.  

Our DEI Approach

QCS is committed to continuous engagement and improvement in DEI.  This requires us to be intentional.  Our DEI efforts are centered on 6 strategies.

We listen.

We reflect.

We learn.

We cannot change if we do not listen.  By listening to others’ feedback, experiences, and perspectives, we open ourselves to the possibility of change.
DEI is rooted in personal and shared identities.  By reflecting on how different identities interact with our own, we find common ground and opportunities to grow.
Knowledge drives creativity, problem-solving, and partnership.  By committing to continuous learning, we position ourselves to make a significant DEI impact.

We extend grace.

We invest.

We take action.

Mistakes are an inherent part of change.  When we make mistakes, we admit our shortcomings, extend grace, and seek to improve. 
We cannot affect systemic change without investment.  By making strategic investments in today, we new create opportunities tomorrow.
Every action counts.  When opportunities to promote DEI arise, we take them.  When opportunities are scarce, we create them. 

Our DEI Goals 

Accountability is a critical part of our DEI efforts.  Over the next 5 years, QCS has set the following DEI goals.
Goal #1- Create a qcs workforce that reflects diversity 
QCS’s workforce will reflect the many cultures, perspectives, and communities involved in international education. 
Goal #2- Systematically promote income equality
Income inequality is a persistent problem for women, people of color, and other minorities.  To address this issue, QCS will develop pricing paradigms for all contracted work that seek compensation equity for underrepresented employees and contractors, including women, people of color, and minorities in the education sector.   ​
Goal #3- Expand access to qcs expertise in minority-serving organizations
An important part of DEI is expanding access.  QCS will develop ways to offer discounts, cost sharing, and pro-bono services to organizations that invest in underrepresented communities.
