From grades to competencies: implementing CBE in Nursing Education
As nursing programs move toward competency-based education, the challenge is no longer why to change, but how to design assessment systems that produce clear, observable and defensible evidence of practice readiness across courses, simulations and clinical placements.
Join this practical webinar to see how nursing programs translate program-level competencies into concrete rubrics, workflows and reporting structures that support consistent assessment, early intervention and longitudinal insight into student development.
What you'll learn
- Strengthen quality & reporting: Generate accreditation-ready evidence while improving curriculum, without added assessment burden
- Turn competencies into practice: Translate nursing competencies into shared rubrics and assignments across classroom, simulation, and clinical settings
- Build evidence over time: Replace isolated grades with structured, programmatic evidence for consistent competency judgments
- Assess real-world skills: Connect outcomes to authentic activities using ready-to-use templates, no full course redesign needed
- Track student progress: Monitor competency development longitudinally to identify gaps early and support targeted coaching
