Currently, in the education of adults, including through the studies at the university programs of professional master's degrees, there is an emphasis on initiation into quality management. Quality management, in turn, contributes to the efficiency of the educational process as a whole. Our study also includes the variable education for sustainable development, which is improved by advancing quality standards, with specific indicators and descriptors. All managerial functions, from planning to improvement, must be related to the imperatives of sustainable education in local and global contexts. Thus, we aim to sensitize the investigated subjects and potential readers to the interconnection of education for quality and sustainable development as elements of new education. The latter can offer viable solutions to the problems of the contemporary world. We propose to carry out qualitative research based on a questionnaire applied to a representative batch of master's students from the State University of Moldova, who study the discipline of Quality Management in Education. Representing different types of educational institutions and localities from the Republic of Moldova, the investigated subjects will evaluate the reflection of education for sustainable development in the quality management system of the institution and will analyze the school documentation from the given perspective. We are interested in ascertaining the level of awareness of the problem reported by us and identifying opportunities and solutions for improvement. We propose the hypothesis that education for sustainable development is little represented in institutional policy documents, and educational management, in general, and quality management, in particular, are concerned with this issue sporadically and occasionally. This situation causes serious ecological problems and perpetuates local and global crises. Insignificant interventions by decision-makers, community, and educational actors perpetuate ecological catastrophes/ bombs and enormously affect the well-being of the population.
