Abstract	Abstract: Competency Based Education (CBE) is a pedagogical approach that shifts the focus from time spent in the classroom to mastery of learning outcomes. This paradigm empowers students to progress at their own pace, fostering deeper learning and a sense of ownership over their education. Competency-Based Education (CBE) is an emerging paradigm in modern pedagogy that aims to improve educational outcomes by focusing on the acquisition and demonstration of specific competencies rather than traditional time-based learning models. CBE emphasizes student-centered learning, where learners progress at their own pace after mastering clearly defined skills and knowledge outcomes. This approach aligns academic content with real-world applications, ensuring that students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and lifelong learning skills essential for success in a rapidly evolving global landscape. By prioritizing mastery over seat time, CBE empowers students to take ownership of their learning process, thereby increasing motivation, engagement, and academic confidence. Additionally, the integration of technology and performance-based assessments in CBE environments enables educators to track student progress more effectively and provide timely interventions. This abstract explores the ways in which Competency-Based Education enhances students’ learning abilities by fostering deeper understanding, active learning, and practical skill acquisition. The shift toward competency-based models supports diverse learners, reduces learning gaps, and encourages equity in education by allowing each student to succeed at their own pace. Empirical evidence suggests that students in CBE programs perform better in terms of academic achievement, retention, and readiness for higher education or employment. As education systems worldwide grapple with the need for reform, CBE presents a promising alternative that aligns learning with the demands of the 21st century. The implementation of CBE requires institutional commitment, faculty training, and ongoing evaluation to ensure its effectiveness.
