Info: Laying the Foundation for Competency-Based Education (CBE). In this session, participants will gain a comprehensive introduction to the Marzano Academies Model, designed to foster personalized learning pathways for every student. We’ll explore the growing need for Competency-Based Education (CBE) in today’s educational landscape, examining how this model prioritizes mastery over seat time, allowing each learner to progress at their own challenge level based on demonstrated understanding. The session will also underscore the critical role of establishing a positive, supportive classroom culture in a CBE environment, creating a more equitable and engaging learning experience for all students.
Info: In this session, we’ll explore the essential process of transforming broad academic standards into specific, actionable proficiency scales, a foundational element of Competency-Based Education (CBE). Proficiency scales serve as the roadmap, clarifying what students need to know and be able to do at each stage of learning, thus linking standards directly to instructional practices and assessments. By making learning targets explicit, these scales foster a positive classroom culture where students take ownership of their progress. We will also examine how advancements in AI technology can assist educators in creating and validating proficiency scales more efficiently.
Info: You're Invited to a Social Hour! Join us for an enjoyable evening at the Holiday Inn and Suites. We plan to relax and gather for a social hour filled with good company, great conversations and light refreshments. This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with friends, meet new faces, and unwind. We hope to see you there! Please RSVP by February 18, 2026.
Info: Session 4: Unit Planning in a CBE System. This session will guide participants in the essentials of unit planning within a CBE framework. Educators will learn how to leverage proficiency scales to build efficient, focused unit plans that align with student learning goals. By proactively using scales, teachers can design classroom assessment tasks that capture meaningful evidence of learning, allowing for a clear and ongoing understanding of student progress. This session will also provide practical strategies for creating quick, adaptable unit plans that support personalized learning pathways, ensuring that all students have opportunities to demonstrate growth and mastery.
Info: This session will dive into the use of continuous flexible grouping to address diverse learner needs within a CBE system. Participants will explore strategies for using assessment data to create dynamic groups based on students' readiness levels, ensuring that instruction is both responsive and appropriately challenging. Through this approach, educators can align instruction more closely with each learner’s unique progression, making it easier to adapt to shifts in understanding and mastery.
Info: This session will focus on record keeping and reporting within a CBE system, emphasizing the importance of using a "preponderance of evidence" to determine students' accurate proficiency levels. Participants will explore methods for collecting and organizing assessment data, ensuring that grades reflect true mastery of skills and concepts rather than mere completion or effort. By examining best practices for tracking and reporting progress, educators will learn how to create transparent, fair, and meaningful records that support both student growth and instructional decision-making.
