Please note that before an interview can take place, we will need to have received both the completed application form and a reference from your church leader.

Other information:
It is extremely important that whoever is overseeing you sends us an outline of the leadership role which you have/or will have within the church or, if applicable, your job description.
It is also helpful if the leadership understands that there is a mentoring element involved in the training. If your leaders are not able to provide suitable mentoring, please let us know as soon as possible so we may help you find suitable arrangements. We would be very happy to chat through with them what this involves, if that is helpful.
Completion of Newfrontiers Leadership Training does not guarantee paid full-time employment. If your future is not clear to those responsible for your supervision on the course, we will be happy to discuss any concerns you have in order to effectively make future plans.
