We have been developing these materials over a number of years and presented the course on several occasions here in the UK and also in the Far East. Feedback from participants has been very positive and this has encouraged us to make it more widely available.
The course can be used at several levels.
1. Individual students can benefit by working through the exercises. We recommend, however, that each student find a mentor to discuss responses to questions or issues raised. This will be of much greater benefit to the student than working alone.
2. A church or group of churches can identify students and mentors who could work through the materials, via several seminar sessions. Tilsley College would be happy to provide a trainer to lead the group through the course.
3. At a Regional or National level, potential trainers could be identified and Tilsley College would provide instruction in how to use the materials. These new trainers would then be available to offer the course locally.
The course is now available on CD and comprises the following:
A set of notes for students
A set of notes for mentors
A Trainers guide
A set of overhead transparencies
A PowerPoint presentation
The next few pages of the web site contain samples of the material in each section. By clicking on either "outline" or "samples" you will be able to get a better idea of what the course contains.
Other questions are answered under "FAQ" (frequently asked questions).
