      Competency-Based Education (CBE) is defined as flexibility in earning credit, allowing students to demonstrate mastery of content regardless of time, place, or pace. CBE offers personalized learning opportunities through various methods, such as online and blended learning, dual enrollment, project-based learning, and credit recovery. This approach enhances student engagement by making content relevant and tailored to individual needs. The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) supports CBE by providing assessment grants to states and recognizing it as an innovative assessment method. The authors, experienced in implementing CBE across schools, share best practices to help institutions navigate the transition from traditional curricula and assessment methods. They address the challenges schools face in supporting and sustaining the necessary shifts, requiring new roles and skills for leaders, teachers, and students. The book explores essential aspects for successful CBE implementation, including communication with families, multi-year assessment plans, supporting professional learning communities (PLCs), and incorporating student voice and choice.
