What types of on-site training programs can you provide? How much does it cost?

Here are a few examples of the wide variety of training programs we can facilitate.  We do not use a “cookie cutter” approach but, rather, customize each training program to the needs of the organization.  To request a quote please fill out this brief form.

  1. Facilitating a series of group exercises and discussions: This option is great for pastoral leadership teams, church plant teams, campus ministry teams, etc.
  2. Preaching and speaking: One or more of our trainers can address your congregation or members in a large group setting.
  3. Group training based on our e-learning sessions: Your members can use one of our e-learning sessions in advance (license cost included) and then we can meet to discuss the content and how to apply what you’ve learned in your organization.

How do you determine how much to charge?

We intentionally keep our on-site training fees as low as possible.  If you compare our quote to other similar training programs we believe that you will find that we are at or (in most cases) well below the “standard rates”. There are many factors which effect the amount we quote including:

  1. How far we need to travel and how long we need to stay at your location: This potentially includes things like miles driven, cost of plane ticket(s), a rental car, meals, hotel, etc.
  2. Who will be facilitating the training: It will depend on how many of our staff will need to be involved in the preparation and delivery of the training content.  If an e-learning expert contributor is helping then they will determine the cost for the part which they are facilitating.

For customized training discussions and mediation programs additional factors also include:

  1. The number of people who will be participating and for how many hours: The per person rate may be discounted significantly for larger groups and multiple training sessions. Keep in mind that our investment in your training program will begin long before we facilitate the on-site training as we discuss your needs, collect data from trainees through pre-training surveys, etc.
  2. If the training sessions will be based on a ReNew E-learning Session: We charge a small additional fee for these sessions because we pay a commission to the content contributors.

Who facilitates your training programs?

It will depend on your preferences and the type of training that you would like to have done. We can give you a better idea after you describe what type of training or mediation you would like to have done.  It will typically be one or more of our staff members and possibly one of the e-learning content contributors. (see below)

Can we have one of the e-learning expert content contributors like Dr. Brenda Salter-McNeil or Dr. Michael Emerson facilitate our training?

Possibly. If you are interested in having an e-learning content contributor provide training, consulting, or speaking with your organization please mention that when you request your quote.

What are your training programs like?

We seek to our make our programs…

  • Biblical – Scripture is central to all of our programs.
  • Fun – We learn better when we’re having fun! We may incorporate movies, group exercises, etc. (depending on the time we have available)
  • Relational – We focus on developing individuals rather than “delivering a message”.
  • Discussion-oriented – We emphasize interaction with one another and sharing thoughts, questions, frustrations, etc.
  • Relevant – We try to keep the content on the bottom shelf and talk about the issues that people are really wrestling with rather than abstract concepts or hypothetical situations.
  • Applicable- We want everyone to walk away from each training session with several things they can apply immediately in their lives.

Who can host an on-site training program?

Any organization which is seeking to build biblical multi-ethnic community – churches, denominations, ministries, Christian colleges, etc.

Where has your team facilitated training programs?

We have facilitated small and large group training programs for churches, church plant teams, Bible studies, university students, Christian colleges, national conferences, youth ministries, campus ministries, board of directors, and more.  Visit the Our Ministry page for a partial listing of organizations we have worked with.

How do you determine what topics to cover?

We will talk with the leadership of your organization to determine the topics which best fit your needs.
