Adult Education Teacher Competencies Self-Assessment
Use the Adult Education Teacher Competencies Self-Assessment to determine areas for professional development. The Self-Assessment has 17 questions, one per competency, with performance indicators and sample illustrations providing additional details about each competency.

It enables teachers to assess their own ability within each competency and the relevance of each competency to their teaching assignment and program priorities. It is neither designed nor intended as an employee rating tool. The Self-Assessment must be completed in one sitting. No results are stored online. Print a copy if you want to refer to it in the future.
