Competencies are the measurable skills or knowledge areas that students demonstrate, and faculty assess in courses at Rasmussen University. In competency-based education (CBE) courses, students complete a set number of assignment deliverables based on real-world scenarios to demonstrate their competency in corresponding skill areas. Each deliverable can be submitted up to three times (two for doctoral CBE programs) so students can use instructor feedback to make improvements. There are no set due dates for individual assignments, but all work must be submitted before the course completion deadline.
