MORE COURSES
YWAM Harpenden is a training campus that offers training courses and seminars to help equip you to live like Jesus and transform communities.
Our courses are designed to equip you to take your place in fulfilling the Great Commission, whether that is within a traditional “missions” context or through serving and advancing God’s Kingdom in the different spheres of society. The emphasis of our training is not only growth in knowledge and skills but also Christ-centred character development.
A crucial element to the learning experience is our “live/learn” environment. You learn not only from classes but also from community living, regular rhythms of worship and intercession, local outreach and practical service on our campus. Our courses are typically made up of a 12-week training phase on our campus, often followed by a practical field assignment or outreach. The Discipleship Training School (DTS) is our entry point for most of our second-level training.

WHAT IS THE UNIVERSITY OF THE NATIONS?
These courses are run as part of University of the Nations (UofN) which offers schools, practicums and internships in over 160 nations worldwide.
Courses can be taken one module (school) at a time leading to a degree offered at the Associate’s, Bachelor’s or Master’s level. Here at YWAM Harpenden, we are working to offer tracks that will enable you to gain a diploma (Associate Degree) in the area of Humanities, Communications, and Christian Ministry and Leadership.
The University of the Nations (UofN) is a global Christian University that uses an integrated approach to ministry, including evangelism, training, and the meeting of physical needs. The UofN takes a global, cross-cultural, and modular training approach. Approximately 17,500 students a year take one or more registered courses in over 97 languages at more than 550 locations on all continents. Our training combines elements of both formal and non-formal education, with a commitment to worshipping God in spirit and truth, making room for that expression in all that we do.
Universities first began as ministries of the Church, training leaders for the Church and society. In a similar way, the UofN seeks to train leaders from around the world who are called to the nations, whether they serve in the domain of the Church or in other domains of society. Whatever the context, the common goal of obedience to Christ’s commission to go and make disciples of all nations is the prime motivating factor in developing our training.
