ABCD Guide Training
An ABCD Guide is a practitioner who possesses a sound understanding of Asset-Based Community Development in both theory and practice, demonstrates a passion for citizen-led change and has completed Nurture Development’s training. ABCD Guide Trainers are able to do the following with confidence:
ABCD guide training creates a local legacy in effective ABCD Practice. A cohort of ABCD guides will have the ability to support the growth of ABCD in practice across the locality. As ABCD practice deepens, local ABCD Guides become a go to point for others in their local area that would like to have a genuine conversation about the dilemmas of living and practising in an ABCD way.
- Host a Community of Practice around ABCD
- Support the growth of ABCD conversations in their area
- Bring practitioners together to share learning
