“If you want to be successful, don’t seek success – seek competence to empower yourself.”
LAXMAN PUBLIC SCHOOL organised a workshop on ‘Competency Based Education’ on Friday, 25 April 2025. It was conducted by Mr. Roshan C. and Ms. Shivangi Rana.
The workshop aimed for the better understanding of NEP 2020 relating to competency-based learning so as to implement it in the day-to-day engagement with the learners.
Elucidating the need for a change in the current education system from knowledge-based to competency-based learning, Mr. Roshan explained the term ‘competency’ in detail, keeping the objectives of National Education Policy (NEP) in mind. This was followed by an elaborative discussion of the four components of NEP, namely, knowledge, skill, attitude and behaviour, which help in connecting teaching-learning with real life situations. The key features of Competency Based Education- flexible pacing, personalized learning, anytime – anywhere – learning, credits for mastering a skill and progression, were also explained using examples from varied subjects.
The workshop helped in making the attendees realise the need and significance of competency-based education while conducting classes. Learning which empowers students to take decisions and acquire mastery, was an important takeaway of this informative and engaging session.
