FAQ
What is the commitment?
The cohort associate program is structured from a practical theology model to provide practical training in various aspects of church ministry, including preaching, teaching, pastoral care, evangelism, and administration. The program typically lasts for 9 months and requires a commitment of 3-5 hours per week from the associate and a mentor from the hosting church. During this time, associates and their mentors will work closely with experienced coaches from IML and local church leaders to gain hands-on experience in their area of interest.
How do I sign up?
You can either sign up as an individual to join a virtual group or your church can register to facilitate its own group. For a local church to host a cohort, it needs to provide:
A mentor from the church staff who will collaborate with the IML staff to oversee the cohort.
Motivated associates who are eager to participate in the cohort program under the guidance of the IML staff.
A fee of $200 per associate
What will this cost?
The cohort model costs $200 per student, which covers the cost of the online servers, training staff, and seminary accreditation.
How does the seminary credit work?
Upon completion of each certificate, participants may submit the final project to the facilitator. The facilitator will turn the project into Fuller Equip, and upon successful evaluation, participants will receive advanced standing units that can be applied toward their seminary degree at Fuller Seminary.
