dc.description.abstractMany universities deliver online programs focusing on the development of a highly qualified 21st century workforce to support the unique needs of small businesses in the USA by structuring curriculum around a competency-based learning approach to teaching and learning. This research seeks to demonstrate how small businesses and universities can partner to develop professional competencies, particularly with regard to the knowledge, skills, abilities and behaviors that enable progress in a 21st century small business workforce, since this remains the subject of continuous research. Using a single-case study format this research presents a theoretical competency-based curriculum model for virtual education programs designed to enable a 21st century small business workforce to succeed. This process is tested as applied by the researchers in various courses taught at universities throughout the US.en
