Abstract
Global education systems that are academic and examination oriented are facing three primary challenges: (a) Disconnect between school content and the world of work; (b) Disconnect in realizing the national goals of education; and (c) Disconnect with the demands of the twenty-first century, which has been dubbed as a knowledge and skill age that needs a new set of competencies. Many countries have identified the need to transform education systems towards mitigating the three challenges through entrenching competency-based curriculum (CBC). This chapter explores the skills and competencies required for efficacious delivery of CBC on online platform in higher education.
