Abstract: The purpose of the paper is to measure the quality of distance learning education between CDM Chicago and CDM Amman Jordon. To accomplish this task we used a Total Quality Management (TQM) Model developed by Mergen et al. (2000) and Widrick et al. (2002) which consists of three dimensions (Quality of Design, Quality of Conformance, and Quality of Performance). A case study approach was used to collect data in Amman, Jordan and Chicago, USA. One key finding is that distance learning systems (IT and business processes) in the US cannot be applied in Jordan without significant changes to the administrative process. Another is that, while technology is global in nature, local resources and cultural issues make distance learning difficult to adopt across continents.
