Competency Based EdS/MEd in Higher Ed? - DeanLewis - 10-14-2022

Greetings folks,
I have done some preliminary searching, but I wonder if anyone can link to any worthwhile *competency based* EdS/MEd program with any emphasis in higher ed or adult learning?

Thanks!

Walden has education degrees. They may have one in Tempo which is their CBE program.

At the master's level, your best option is WGU. For the EdS or higher, ACE.edu would be your preliminary option, however I don't recall them being competency based...

I don't think ACE does competency based programs either, but they're affordable, require no textbooks, and have short terms if I remember correctly (this is based on research; never took a class there, though I'm considering it after I finish my MA).

This MEd from SNHU is described as "competency based" but I know that term is used variously at times
MEd in Learning and Leading | SNHU

SNHU isn't CBE. They make that claim a few times on their website but they're not CBE. 

Also this is on the webpage for this degree:
