There is no consent yet about how to implement the ideas of a [[Resource-Based Economic Model]]. Generally, there are two approaches: [[Bottom-Up Implementation of a Resource-Based Economy|bottom-up]] and [[Top-Down Implementation of a Resource-Based Economy|top-down]]. For the two general approaches there exist many potential variations, for example [[Degree of Openness of RBEM Projects|different degrees of openness of RBEM projects]] to interactions with the monetary system.
There is no consensus yet about how to implement the ideas of a [[Resource-Based Economic Model]]{{POV-statement}}.

Advocates of bottom-up approaches argue for starting with [[RBEM Implementation Projects|RBEM implementation projects]] soon, for incrementally developing the implemented methods and for incrementally increasing the participation, either on a individual basis or by including more and more people{{Cn}}. Advocates of top-down approaches rather think that people could be distracted from the general RBEM ideas because of problems that arise from specific RBEM implementation projects. They support educating as many people as possible and planning as many details as possible, before starting to implement a Resource-Based Economy{{Cn}}. Of course also hybrid approaches are conceivable.

RBE Training Arenas (RBE-TAs) may be an option for enabling currently established communities to begin a gradual transformation into an RBE. With RBE-TAs developing all over a web of support for experimental settlements, settlements could be like graduate school.

An RBE-TA is sort of like a school with no tuition. Since this is the case the location can be any plot of land which students will live full-time. At an RBE-TA everyone is a student learning the best practices of a resource based economy. If you have ever seen a 'free school' or a 'makers space', these seem to be extremely valuable additions to any RBE-TA. Of course the management structure will be as horizontal as possible with deviations being as democratic as possible. (Students of course can enroll for periods as short as minutes or as long as years.) When enrolling in an RBE-TA one is expected to bring some tangible resource like food, water, tools, building materials, clothes, etc... which will become shared once across the gates of the RBE-TA.
