Video: Why a Competency-Based Program

February 7, 2019

A competency-based program allows for the most efficient and thorough learning environment for master’s candidates. Rather than determining readiness by seat time in a set number of classes, the WW Graduate Schoollets candidates prove what they know and can do, and work through the projects or challenges based on what they know, learn, and want to master.

In this video, WW Graduate School Chief Academic Officer Peter Laipson talks about some of the reasons the Graduate School chose a competency-based master’s program.
