Near-peer tutoring (NPT) programs greatly prepare tutors for future teaching roles. However, without a comprehensive curricular framework, institutions may not adequately track the knowledge and skills tutors gain from these programs. We propose a competency-based peer-assisted coaching and tutoring (ComPACT) framework that captures tutors' progression as educators and supports their training through a community of practice. This framework leverages specialized teaching paths, digital micro-credentials, and a recognition system to track skill development. Overall, the ComPACT model is designed to create NPT programs that provide as much value to tutors as they do to the students they teach.
近龄辅导（NPT）项目能让辅导者为未来的教学角色做好充分准备。然而，如果没有一个全面的课程框架，院校可能无法充分追踪辅导者从这些项目中获得的知识和技能。我们提出了一个基于能力的同伴辅助指导与辅导（ComPACT）框架，该框架能记录辅导者作为教育工作者的成长过程，并通过实践社区支持他们的培训。这个框架利用专门的教学路径、数字微证书和一个认可系统来追踪技能发展。总体而言，ComPACT模式旨在创建近龄辅导项目，使其为辅导者提供的价值与为他们所辅导的学生提供的价值一样多。
