Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to provide a set of instructor competencies for faculty professional development when transitioning to competency-based instructional programming. This chapter details considerations when designing and developing a competency-based, instructor training model. A competency-based education (CBE) program ought to have instructors that are competent analyzing, designing, developing, and evaluating competency-based instructional offerings. If the purpose of competency-based instructional programs is to move beyond static and passive, knowledge-only based instruction, then instructors should also be capable of providing dynamic, active knowledge and skill-based opportunities for learning.
