Creating equitable learner-centered education systems requires fundamental system-wide shifts. These shifts should be guided by a vision—co-constructed with local leaders, community members, students, and families—for what students need to know and be able todo upon graduating. With that vision as the North Star, state leaders can develop policies that equitably and e ectively support students and educators to reach that goal.  \nThe Aurora Institute has identi􀀞ed six policy shifts that must occur to transform education for all learners—especially for those who have been underserved by the current system. They include:  \n1 Establish a Vision by Developing a Pro le of a Graduate  \n2  \nCreate the Conditions for Equitable Learner-Centered, Competency-Based Education Systems  \n3 Transform Systems of Assessments  \n4 Align Accountability and Data Systems  \n5 Support Educators to Thrive in a Competency-Based System  \n6 Redesign Learning Experiences  \nAurora Institute | 1  \n ESTABLISH A VISION BY DEVELOPING A PROFILE OF A GRADUATE  \nA Pro􀀞le of a Graduate (PoG), also known as a Portrait of a Graduate, describes the essential knowledge, skills, and dispositions each learner needs to excel in post-secondary learning experiences, careers, and civic life. State  \nPoGs should serve as a guiding vision to align other policies toward the goal of ensuring all students are given the support and opportunity to achieve the PoG.  \n• Engage communities and stakeholders, including higher education and employers, to develop a statewide model PoG for K-12 education that re􀀝ects your state’s unique values and objectives for students, including essential academic standards, socialemotional skills, and transferable skills, such as problem solving and critical thinking.  \nCreating Conditions for Systems Change  \nState leaders—governors, legislators, state boards of education, and executives—have signi􀀞cant power and leverage to create the conditions in which competency-based systems can be developed, scaled, and sustained. Each can play a role to orchestrate, innovate, and advocate for changes through coordinated statewide e ort. See Aurora’s A Promise for Equitable Futures: Enabling  Systems Change to Scale Educational and  Economic Mobility Pathways for more in-depth examples of di erent actions they can take.  \n• Share the state PoG widely as an exemplar for districts to build upon and create their own PoGs to support school and district leader decision-making. Establish supports to help schools and districts take the next step to put their PoGs into action, such as developing aligned competencies and other important structures.  \nAurora Institute | 2  \nDe ning Competency-Based Education  \nCompetency-based education (CBE), as envisioned in Aurora’s de􀀞nition, is not onesize-􀀞ts-all for students or any single school, district, or state. By CBE, we mean atransformational system of equitable learning that di erent entities and organizations may describe using terms including “personalized,” “student-centered,”“learnercentered,”“competency-based,”“mastery-based,” and “pro􀀞ciency-based.” Sometimes these are synonyms; sometimes they mean di erent things to di erent people.  \nCompetency-based education provides a comprehensive framework for creating learner-centered educational environments. The design principles of CBE prioritize equity, student ownership, and responsive pacing based on demonstrating mastery of learning (rather than the traditional system’s teacher-centered delivery of curriculum in a predetermined number of hours, with students often moving on without learning essential content and skills). Competency-based education is a system in which:  \n1.
