Core Pillars
To maintain the integrity of the COABE Ambassador Training, each training must include the following six core pillars. While delivery and activities may be adapted, these themes must be present to ensure alignment with COABE’s mission and vision.

PILLAR 1
COABE
Explore who we are and why we exist. Introduce COABE’s mission, membership benefits, and commitment to adult learners and alumni.
Become an Ambassador Training Facilitator
Facilitating the training yourself means you can shape the experience to reflect your learners' goals, strengths, and voices—while deepening their connection to your program.
