Finding a Course that Suits You
Discipleship Training School (DTS). All students are required to attend this foundational program before pursuing any other YWAM courses. DTS is designed to deepen your relationship with Jesus through immersive discipleship, teaching, and outreach.
Beyond DTS, the majority of our students choose to continue learning through additional courses designed to build on the DTS foundation and deepen their faith. Explore our advanced courses in leadership, biblical studies, and ministry. These specialised modular programs are tailored to equip you with the knowledge and skills needed for effective service and leadership in God’s kingdom.
The DTS Journey combines DTS with our most popular advanced courses, creating a structured pathway for personal and spiritual growth. A DTS Journey helps you plan and commit to an extended period of training and equipping through the DTS and beyond. A DTS Journey fits perfectly into a gap year of mission involvement.
We offer DTS in French and Korean as well as Online Courses for those needing a more flexible approach to their learning and seminars for those with limited time.
