The current American education system no longer prepares people for successful employment. Technology rendered the assembly-line model of education obsolete. Unique individual learning paths are the future of education. Let every school be a school of one.
The era in American history of people laboring their entire lives on an assembly line or following a single career track for a single employer is long gone.
All that remains of that bygone era is an educational system that prepares students to succeed in it.
The weight of the entire educational system infrastructure rests on two documents: the high school diploma and the university degree.
You suffer through an archaic, inefficient education process to get your proof of education. Proof. That’s the real product you’re buying.
When you understand this, you’ll never see the education system the same again.
Martin Luther posted a list of grievances on the church door. He didn’t want the church to go away; he simply wanted some reforms.
Much of what made the American school system a global powerhouse of education in the 1950s makes the school system an anchor dragging behind the student today.
Listing grievances against the existing school system framework is a call for reform. Deep, deep reform.
What replaces the assembly-line model of education? Education tailored to the individual. The One Person Schoolhouse. A lifelong classroom of one. You.
How, when, where, and from whom you learned the subject matter is immaterial when you sit for a certification examination.
No excuses. What you do with your educational career depends on you alone. It’s a new era. Explore the possibilities now.
You present a diploma or degree to a prospective employer as proof of education. Certifications serve as proof of education, but allow you to take control of your educational career. You own your education.
The Certification-Based Education system is forming even now without any guiding organization or government agency.
Discover a better way.
Everybody plays at least one role in the Certification-Based Education system. You’ll probably play multiple roles.
The Certification-Based Education system is an ecosystem of education. People will earn a living from educating others in ways not possible with the Grade-Based Education system.
It’s time to unleash the power of the American people to elevate education to heights never before imagined.
The educational world is changing rapidly. If you aren’t watching, you’ll miss the clues. Stay aware.
People have a lot to say about the American educational system. Opinions have a way of becoming rules, regulations, and laws. Don’t be caught unprepared.
