Competency-Based Education

Unlock the potential of competency-based education with the only platform purpose built for CBE.

Competency Assessments and Exams

By using multiple assessment strategies, competency-based education programs provide a comprehensive and well-rounded evaluation of students' proficiency in specific areas of study.

Competency Assessments and Exams

What we do:

We enable community colleges, polytechnics and universities to assess and understand student knowledge, skills, and abilities against competency and outcomes frameworks.

Why it matters:

Competency-based education programs assess competencies using various methods to determine a student's proficiency and mastery in a particular area. These include performance tasks, formative and summative assessments, portfolios, observations, rubrics and scoring guides. These approaches allow educators to evaluate students' abilities and determine if they have achieved the desired competencies.

How you succeed:

We help our customers build and deliver comprehensive continuing professional development programs, provide personalized learning paths, and report on verifiable learning outcomes.

  • Design and deliver high volume competency assessments.
  • Manage question banks and question sets.
  • Connect questions to standards competency frameworks.
  • Engage learners in CPD.

Competency and Outcomes Frameworks

What we do:

We help instructors and instructional designers build competency and outcomes frameworks that connect to assessments and learning resources.

Why it matters:

By using competency and outcomes frameworks, educators ensure that their instruction, assessment, and curriculum design are aligned with the desired competencies. The frameworks provide a roadmap for educators to deliver CBE effectively, monitor student progress, and facilitate individualized learning experiences.

How you succeed:

Our platform is purpose built to develop and manage competencies and frameworks and connect these to assessments and learning resources.

  • Develop and manage competency and outcomes frameworks.
  • Manage question banks and question sets.

As the future of learning, CBE aligns with the demands of the modern workforce, promotes continuous development, and offers efficient, accessible, and personalized learning experiences.

Courses and Programs

What we do:

Competency-based courses and programs require a different approach to curriculum development and instructional design. We help our customers understand these approaches to assist in the design of competency-based curricula, the development of learning objectives, and the creation of learning resources that align with competency frameworks.

Why it matters:

Competency-based courses and programs offer a learner-centric, relevant, flexible, and measurable approach to education. By emphasizing specific competencies, CBE ensures that learners are equipped with the skills needed for success in their chosen fields.

Why it matters:

Having a single system that handles both course catalog items and student registration ensures seamless integration, real-time updates, enhanced user experience, efficient resource allocation, accurate reporting, and simplified maintenance.
