Make growth visible. Make progress possible.

Imagine trying to improve in a sport without knowing which skills you’ve mastered—or where to focus next. That’s what school feels like when learning is reduced to points and averages.

The Measuring What Matters Pathway inside CBE Catalyst equips leaders to design competency-based assessments, rubrics, and reporting tools that highlight progress, clarify next steps, and build trust across classrooms and communities.

When Progress Stays Hidden

When growth is hidden by points and averages, students can’t strengthen skills like self-direction, communication, and critical thinking. Each semester without change means widening gaps and missed opportunities for students. Delay makes alignment harder, rework costlier, and trust harder to regain.

“As a teacher starting fresh in a new school, new subjects, and even a new language, I felt overwhelmed trying to design meaningful lessons. Other AI tools gave me ideas, but they couldn’t capture the realities of the classroom. The Playlab AI bot (a design partner tool within CBE Catalyst, built in collaboration with Playlab) was different—it generated robust, age-appropriate, and doable learning experiences aligned to my targets and the Future9 competencies. For the first time, I don’t feel overwhelmed—I feel supported.”
