    This document discusses how behavior (Level 3) and results (Level 4) are evaluated in the adult education setting of a large distance school. At the school, evaluation has traditionally involved students answering questions to demonstrate they learned the material ("tell and test"). A competency-based curriculum was introduced in 2007 but implemented without proper training. The school is now working on a peer coaching model called Kumool to help reinforce learning and monitor performance. While they would like to evaluate Level 4 results, the school currently does not conduct Level 4 evaluations and is planning a longitudinal study to start doing so.
