Where You Are in the Journey

This pre-assessment establishes your starting point across three dimensions: cultural awareness, speaking truth to power, and community partnership. Your responses here will be compared with a post-assessment after Lesson 8 to measure your growth.

This assessment connects to your Learner Dashboard, which tracks your progress through the eight lessons, the Phoenix Wheel™ of Competency™, and your PCREF Evidence Portfolio across all 13 domains.

Step 2 of 4

Pre-Assessment

Ava emerging — the beginning of your liberation journey

This assessment helps us understand where you are starting from. There are no right or wrong answers — only honest reflection.

From the moment you begin: your reflections start forming patterns that can be seen across teams and services. This is not just learning — it is system intelligence in the making.

Your answers here create a baseline. After completing all 8 lessons, your post-assessment will show how your understanding has grown. Both are then brought into your Dashboard so you can see your development more clearly across journey at a glance.
