The NCSC functions as a hub, broker and accelerator that helps us produce results.
“Hub” by serving as the curator of communities of practice and as the navigator for the distribution channel
“Broker” by offering communities access to tools, experts and information needed to develop the capacities (leadership, resources and skills) to execute their plans.
“Accelerator” by finding and creating catalytic events, awards and other opportunities designed to increase the scope and pace of change 14 14
