Walk Away With a Competency-Based Learning Experience Built for Your Classroom

Included in this course is a 20-page workbook to help you design a competency-based learning experience. As you complete each module, you'll gather examples, tools, and resources to implement the backward design process, utilize performance and iterative-focused formative assessments, and support learners in reflecting on and sharing their learning journey. This course will also help you define your assessment and grading practices, focusing on a standards-based or competency-based approach.

Whether you are new to teaching or have a deep practice of designing competency-based learning experiences and assessments, this course will provide you with the strategies you need to take the next step in your learner-centered journey.

What Educators Are Saying

“Excellent course that cuts right to the heart of facilitating collaborative learning. Laser-focused with a ton of resources.”

Ben Curtiss, Teacher

“For those struggling to identify effective group dynamics and establish accountability in those groups, regardless of the learning methodology being utilized, this course will enhance your tool belt and improve your confidence in eliciting meaningful and authentic learning from all students.”

Parker Collins, Teacher and Administrator

“This was one of the most productive asynchronous courses I've taken. It was a good mix of learning, examples, and taking action to help my class this week (or next). I want to review it again through the lens of adult learning to help me better shape professional learning for teachers at my school.”
