This terms appears several times in the text and I'm not quite sure how to translate it - quality courses sounds like the courses are good in terms of quality, and I'm not 100% that is what it means here. I considered using "quality assurance courses" but I'm not convinced it means that either. Here are some examples from the text:


- En este punto, se han hecho grandes esfuerzos por incrementar las oportunidades de comercialización de los productos desarrollados por las empresas miembros. Por ejemplo, se han impartido cursos de capacitación **y de calidad** a las empresas con el apoyo de Universidades y del Gobierno Estatal, para de esa manera incrementar las ventajas competitivas .

-La vinculación con las instituciones de educación superior para el aprovechamiento de los recursos ha conseguido resultados. Por ejemplo, existe un **curso de calidad** en Capability Madurity Model (CMM) que busca adaptar los parámetros que aquí se plantean a empresas de tamaño pequeño, el curso es impartido por la Universidad Autónoma.
