SURVUZ Foundation, in cooperation with USM Partners and USM Professionals, develops a range of USM products. SURVUZ oversees the certification of those USM products and, to the extent possible, makes them available to USM partners and USM professionals, and to USM users, free of charge.

In cases where there are out-of-pocket costs, a fee may be passed on. This is e.g. the case with partner-specific USM products: products developed by and at the expense of partners. However, many products are jointly developed by SURVUZ, USM Partners and USM Professionals and shared within the USM community:

  • User organizations get access to a range of open USM products, free of charge.
  • USM partners and USM professionals are provided with a set of USM resources that support them in the professional performance of their activities, free of charge.

USM Resources for professional deployment include the following:

  • the tools for the project-based deployment of USM by a certified USM Coach: the USM Roadmap with planning documents, scans, graphics, diagrams, templates, presentations, videos, and numerous handouts
  • the tools for conducting USM training by a certified USM Trainer: slide decks, handouts, evaluations, exam preparation, templates, exercises, assignments, videos, online learning environments, and numerous handouts
  • the tools for conducting USM audits by a certified USM Auditor: audit protocols, documents, questionnaires, and reporting templates
  • the tools for teaching USM at colleges and universities by USM teachers: online learning environments with slide decks, handouts, assessments, mock exams, templates, exercises, assignments, videos, and numerous handouts
