CAP100 was developed as a basic first year digital literacy course, incorporating concepts such as gamification, outcomes-based assessment, self-paced learning and challenge assignments. There is no A through F grading scale for this course, so the course is based on a series of 50 outcomes each student needs to master in order to complete the course.

All materials for the course were created to support the course and reduce costs for students. Lectures and videos placed on Youtube support the course, as well as the broader student population at Bellingham Technical College
