2023 Summer Review Institute Applications

The Instructional Material Bureau (IMB) is now accepting applications for the 2023 Summer Review Institute.  Core instructional materials for grades 7-12 Career and Technical Education and K-12 Computer Science, Health Education, and PE will be reviewed June 12-23, 2023.  We are looking for reviewers and review team leaders who are committed to helping the IMB and NMPED identify high-quality instructional materials for the students and teachers of New Mexico.  The reviews are used to determine whether the submitted instructional materials are adopted or not adopted by the state.  The application window closes February 13, 2023.  

A description of each review institute position with the application link is below.
