Competencies fall on a continuum between goals and performance objectives and denote the outcome of instruction.

Competency-based instruction

• tells a student before instruction what skills or knowledge they will demonstrate after instruction;
• provides instruction which enables each student to attain individual goals as measured against prestated standards;
• provides immediate and continual repetition and review.
  

Competency-based curriculum, instruction, and assessment are

• explicit,
• known,
• agreed upon,
• integrated,
• performance oriented, and
• adaptive.
