In this course, you’ll be exposed to some of the range of approaches to competency-based education (CBE) that schools are exploring. In the videos, you’ll hear from schools about what problems they are hoping CBE will address, as well as the challenges and opportunities that have come with implementation. As the project for the course, you’ll create an artefact that will be used to facilitate a conversation with a stakeholder about CBE.

I liked the way in which competency-based education allows an opportunity for learners to learn and ask for support, should there be a need. It also gives opportunity for growth and development for teachers.
