youth ministry certification program
Because nothing happens without a leader
This program is a unique, holistic strategy to educate, equip and encourage youth
workers in their first five years of youth ministry leadership. It is based
on Youth Leadership’s 40 years of graduate level teaching at Bethel and Luther
Seminaries. The program includes intensive classes, a personal Leadership
Coach and a peer learning community.
3 questions to ask regarding leadership development.
1. What do you need to KNOW as a leader?
2. What do you need to be able to DO in ministry?
3. What kind of person do you need to BE for an effective long-term ministry?
These
components are addressed through Youth Leadership’s intensive courses, a Bible
course elective at a local college or seminary, your contextual experience, leadership
coaching, peer support networks and additional growth, training and networking opportunities.
Youth Leadership is committed to the spiritual growth and character of each student.
The 18 month program provides a relational environment for leadership development
through excellent classroom instruction combined with leadership coaching and peer
community elements unlike any other youth ministry training programs out there.
This certification program will guide you toward growth in knowledge, skills and
personal development.
