Competency-Based Education in Three Pilot Programs: Examining Implementation and Outcomes

by Matthew W. Lewis, Brian M. Stecher, Laura S. Hamilton, et al.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation asked RAND to evaluate three competency-based education grants in terms of implementation, students' experiences, and student performance.
