Transition Training
Transition Training delivers residential training for living and working in another culture.
In the early 1990's several mission agencies met together to consider how they could pool their expertise and resources to provide pre-field training for their staff. The course is designed to enhance the participants' knowledge in Biblical and missiological reflection by providing practical competency development to facilitate an effective transition to another cultural setting. Transition Training runs over 10 days, and is a live in course for the whole family. The course is neither country nor mission specific.
The benefits of the program are:
- a training program based in experiential adult learning
- individual learning contracts ensuring maximum gain for all participants
- a team of experienced facilitators drawn from a variety of missions and situations
- community living enabling peer support and interaction
- contact with communities and churches where learning can be pursued and tested
- supervised children's programs, geared to assisting your children's transitions
- the constant updating of methods and materials used
