"CBET is a method of education and training used in professional environments and academic institutions as an alternative to traditional classroom and course based curriculum.  It focuses on defined competencies which are used as milestones or benchmarks to assess the progress of students.  Competencies are a set of skills, knowledge and behaviors someone needs to have achieved in order to perform tasks, jobs or activities in the world of work."
