About International House World Organization

If International House World were so committed to “implementing high standards of quality,” I think it would see the agreement problem in the sentence below. “[N]etwork” is a singular noun. The verb to be should be conjugated as “is,” not “are.” The verb must agree with the subject, not the object of a prepositional phrase.

“The International House World Organization (IHWO) is a network of language schools worldwide that are committed to implementing high standards of quality and innovation in education and training.”
