Competency identified for this course. In the final column for Week One, identify a specific example of what you will do throughout this course to
achieve each course outcome (possible points = 50).
In Week 8, you will again identify your level of competency for each of the sub-competencies listed on the Week One Worksheet. In the final
column you will give a specific example that shows how you demonstrated each course outcome. The assignment is to be submitted for grading
by 11:59 p.m. MT Wednesday of Week 8 (possible points = 50).
In the highlighted selection below, select the number that best represents your confidence that you meet each sub competency at this point in
your education career.

2= I am somewhat confident that I meet this competency but could use some additional education and practice in this area.
