You don’t need to do this work alone. We are here to help.

The Learning Innovation Network is designed to bring together and support a community of educators who work hard to transform teaching and learning through a competency-based approach.

Why choose us?

Our experienced coaches provide personalized consulting to support you wherever you are in your CBE journey.

Building 21’s coaches are former educators who spearheaded the design and implementation of our Competency Framework used in our lab schools.

Hear from our partners

Each year we work with schools across the country serving thousands of students.

The experience of working with Tom and Sandra was extremely beneficial for us. Their expertise in competency-based education is excellent. They are willing to honestly share their perspectives, experiences, and opinions. They are always looking to grow and learn, and consider the thoughts of others as well.

Kadie Assistant Superintendent

We weren’t just another school, or this wasn’t some vague and theoretically disconnected project. You became part of my team, even if just for a little while. You stayed in touch and believed in our work.

Kevin Principal

Building 21 has been a part of our redesign process from the beginning. The team at B21 has continually been a source of knowledge and guidance as we have worked through the innumerable strategic decisions necessary to implement the CBE [competency-based education] change….I would say it was simply their expertise and willingness to be available and guide our leaders and staff through the ‘thinking process’ that was most impactful to helping our school. The Building 21 team has been and continue to be invaluable for our schools.

Eian Principal

B21 is my north star in creating competencies.

Lisa School Founder

Building 21 has been a thought partner and a leader for us…while they work primarily with the high school, their impact can be felt all the way down to our preschool program.
