Values Shout Out: Christina Babcock

April 02, 2025

Nominated by Joshua Campos: I am honored to nominate Christina Babcock for the Values Shout Out award in recognition of her exceptional support, leadership, and commitment to fostering growth and success.

When I embarked on developing my own Competency-Based Education (CBE) course, I found myself facing significant challenges in the design process. Christina’s willingness to share her own CBE course as a guiding template was invaluable. Her course shell provided clarity, structure, and a strong foundation that not only made my task possible but also ensured my success.

Christina embodies the values of this award in multiple ways:

  • She visualized the impossible by creating a well-structured and effective CBE course, demonstrating that complex course development can be both achievable and impactful.
  • Her positivity and enthusiasm were evident in her willingness to help, offering guidance and encouragement every step of the way.
  • By sharing her knowledge, she celebrated success not only for herself but also for her colleagues, reinforcing a culture of collaboration.
  • She actively encourages others to learn, develop, and grow, ensuring that knowledge is shared and that others can build upon best practices.
  • Finally, she leads by example, demonstrating that leadership is about lifting others up and fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.

Without her support, my course design would have faltered, but because of her generosity and leadership, I was able to create a strong and effective learning experience. Christina’s impact extends beyond her own work—she is a true leader who empowers others, making her a perfect candidate for this award
