What is Competency-Based Education?

At WGU Tennessee, your success is measured by learning, not how much time you spend in a classroom. We call it competency-based education.

You spend your time focused on what you need to learn and move quickly through subjects you’ve already mastered. You'll be able to draw upon prior college and work experience as you complete course requirements and possibly accelerate your program, saving time and money.
