The CSM Course - Intensely Personalized Education
The CSM Course uses next-generation personalized learning technology to build High Performance. The CSM Course analyzes each student response to fashion a unique learning experience, eve reacting to the way the student feels and acts - their frustrations and focus, their struggles and successes.
We had to think outside the box in creating the CSM Course, because our goal is more than simply teaching conventional skills. The CSM Course incorporates dozens of innovations in pedagogy from behavioral economics, social and emotional psychology, and more, in order to transform their self-efficacy, persistence through challenges, and learning agility.
CSM's intense personalization adapts to the needs and background of every student, leading to effective, efficient, and durable learning. CSM is motivating and challenging even to those with advanced degrees, but accessible even to struggling students.
The CSM Certificate - A New Type of Credential
The CSM Certificate is the first credential of High Performance. It demonstrates to employers the characteristics that they value in all employees, and indicates to colleges those students who will thrive in postsecondary.
The skills and traits certified in the CSM Certificate are challenging even for college graduates, but the next-generation technology of the CSM Course means that it can be attained by people of ALL educational backgrounds.
| ACE® Recommendation for College Credit | Alignment with the Common Employability Skills Framework |
|---|---|
The American Council on Education's College Credit Recommendation Service (ACE CREDIT®) has evaluated CSM and recommends that colleges accept the CSM Certificate as 3 semester hours of quantitative reasoning credit at the lower division baccalaureate level. This recommendation means that the CSM Certificate may provide college credit (math or elective), and satisfy high school graduation or college placement requirements!

CSM is aligned with the Common Employability Skills framework, which describes the fundamental skills that employees need in the workplace across sectors, functions, and positions. "The CSM High Performance course and certificate addresses a core set of the Common Employability Skills that is directly linked to high performance on the job. It focuses on individuals being their personal best: Caring about what they do, pushing through failure, having high expectations for themselves and following through." — Valerie Taylor, lead author of the Common Employability Skills Framework |
