Today's competency-based education (CBE) programs are offering students a unique postsecondary experience that focuses more on student learning and less on whether or how long a student has spent time in a classroom. These programs focus on competencies rather than credit hours, require students to demonstrate those competencies through authentic assessments, recognize extra-institutional learning, and often expand faculty roles to include activities such as individual coaching. Many institutions make it a priority to educate and engage faculty early in the process of designing and developing CBE programs. Over the past two years, the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning (CAEL) has been assisting institutions in this effort through its Lumina Foundation-funded CBE Jumpstart initiative, which provides CBE training workshops designed to educate faculty and staff about CBE and help them engage with CBE design considerations. This report shares details about the impact of these workshops on the depth faculty and staff have in understanding CBE, as well as the degree to which these workshops may have helped to encourage institutions to move forward with CBE. In particular, interviews with trainees at participating institutions revealed that training on CBE can be valuable at very different stages of institutional engagement; that institutions benefit the most from learning about the various kinds of CBE models that are possible, and that training can sometimes play an important role in spurring institutional leadership and staff towards implementation.
