Join Dr. Robert J. Marzano and Dr. Brian J. Kosena for part 2 of the “Attaining Competency-Based Education” webinar series. In this second webinar, we will continue to explore the question, “How can a school or district make the shift to competency-based education?” The pair will discuss the system-level aspects of shifting to CBE once a school or district has tackled instructional planning and reporting.

Vocabulary instruction provides a firm foundation for literacy development and academic achievement. In this session, participants learn a practical system to implement direct vocabulary instruction for basic (Tier 1), advanced (Tier 2), and academic (Tier 3) terms. Participants explore Dr. Robert J. Marzano’s analysis of more than 8,000 K–5 terms—organized into semantic clusters—and discover how to design a schoolwide plan for comprehensive vocabulary instruction.

Dr. Robert Marzano has spent decades researching effective instructional practices, and his Marzano Mastery Approaches provide a structured way for schools to implement competency-based education successfully.

Whether you’re just beginning your journey or refining existing practices, this session will give you a clear framework to align grading, assessment, and instruction with mastery-based principles.
