FAQ

In years past, there was one specific date… so what’s the date for 2024? 

After 5 incredible years, we’ve decided to change things up to help it grow even faster! The “National DAY of Volunteer Youth Ministry Training” to “DAYS”… basically, you pick any day (or multiple days) that work for you and the groups you invite (if you’re hosting). If you’re hosting, best practice would be to pick a date that works for your location, lock-in your YM friends to that date, and boom–it’s whatever day/time you choose. So flexible. We’ll deliver all of the training content to you on August 1, 2024.

How long is the National Day of Volunteer Youth Ministry Training? 

We will deliver a program that will last 3 hours, it will be made up of 6 trainings (10-12 minutes each), discussion times for each session, and have some fun sprinkled throughout. We will also give you a few additional sessions that you can use if you’d like to swap out some of the existing content (or use at another time). How you do it is up to you, it’s fully customizable (cut or add content to make the training longer or shorter)! But if you block out a 3-hour time-block you’ll have plenty of time. And again – you choose the time frame, the day and the cost!

What does the schedule look like? 

The schedule is designed for it to be as easy on you as possible. We will deliver a program that will last 3 hours, it will be made up of 6 trainings (10-12 minutes each), discussion times for each session, and have some fun sprinkled throughout. We will also give you a few additional sessions that you can use if you’d like to swap out some of the existing content (or use at another time).

Here’s the best part: the training content will be delivered in Coleader which will make it super easy for you to edit the training to fit your ministry’s needs (only include the training topics that you want, add/cut/move elements around, etc)! You get to choose how long your training event is!

If you provide an air-conditioned/heated room with decent screens or a projector, that’s enough. If you want to go all-out and have snacks, meal(s), prizes, etc.—go for it! Just be super clear on your start/end times and stick to it!

Why sign up this far in advance?

The price will go up steadily in the coming months, and by locking it in now you are guaranteed the lowest price for this training!
