Despite the promise of competency-based education (CBE),
learner-centered issues related to support, retention, and program
completion rates remain problematic. In addition, the
infrastructure for higher education, including issues related to
faculty (intellectual property, workload, and curriculum), pose
barriers and challenges in the design, development, implementation,
and delivery of CBE. In response, administrators, faculty,
designers, and developers of competency-based experiences must
incorporate innovative strategies that are foreign to the
traditional institution. A strong emphasis on retention and
graduation rates must surround the student with support, starting
with the design and development of the CBE system. There are few
resources that can help prepare instructional designers, advisors,
academic administrators, and faculty to meet the many challenges of
designing, developing, implementing, and managing CBE. Career Ready
Education Through Experiential Learning is an essential reference
book that includes strategies for design and development of
competency-based education (CBE) programs, as well as
administrative and delivery strategies as examples of how CBE can
be implemented. Through a strong theoretical framework, chapters
present the best practices, strategies, and practical tips as
examples and scenarios that can be used in higher education
settings. While highlighting education courses, programs, and
lessons across various institutions and educational domains, this
book is ideal for higher education administrators and policy
designers/implementors, instructional designers, curriculum
developers, faculty, public policy leaders, students in curriculum
and instruction and instructional technology programs, along with
researchers and practitioners interested in CBE and experiential
learning in higher education.
