"So many frameworks name important skills, but few make them teachable, observable, and measurable. Future9 makes the how visible." This great quote from last week’s Future9 v2.0 Webinar captures what our session was all about—the how of moving from abstract ideas about competencies to real, observable, and teachable skills that prepare students for a rapidly changing world. We explored what’s changing in education, work, and the competencies students need to thrive. The conversation wasn’t just about what’s new in the Future9 v2.0—it was about what’s next for learning communities committed to meaningful change.  📌 Key moments from the discussion:  [00:02:03] – Why competencies must be observable (not just abstract ideas inside a student’s brain).   [00:09:54] – The shift from career readiness to lifelong adaptability—because today’s graduates will change jobs, industries, and even career paths multiple times.   [00:22:26] – How Future9 v2.0 refines essential skills, from cultural intelligence to connecting with the natural world—a direct response to what students, schools, and research told us was missing.  If you missed the live session, you can watch the full recording here: https://lnkd.in/esRVQfvw And if you’re working to advocate for competency-based learning in your community, download the updated Future9 framework—it’s free, open-source, and designed to be a tool, not a prescription.  ⬇️ Download Future9 v2.0: https://lnkd.in/exdzWuHn What resonated with you?
