    Abstract

    Metacognitive competencies related to cognitive tasks have been
    shown to predict learning outcomes. Less however is known about how metacognitive competencies can enhance the retention and progression of learners in Further Education. This study provides evidence from Performance Learning (PL)
    and its intelligent system PLEX, PL’s proprietary technology, to show how learners’
    self-reports on meta-cognitive dimensions can be used as predictors of learner
    retention and progression within the learner’s course/s. The results confirm the
    predictive potential of PLEX technology in early identification of metacognitive
    competencies in learning and helps learners with developing effective remedies
    to enhance their retention and progression levels.
