ASDAN Champions
Nominate a learner to be recognised nationally
ASDAN Champions is our new learner recognition initiative, celebrating the achievements of learners across ASDAN centres.
Each month, one learner will be named ASDAN Champion of the month, showcasing how they’ve used their ASDAN experience to build confidence, develop skills and make a positive impact.
