Training Programme
Before long a group of young candidates came into residence for full-time study and practical training. The programme would from time to time be extended to include also non-resident part-time students or employed people on shorter and less formally structured intensive courses. Many of these trainees went on to Christian work in Britain, or overseas in Africa, Asia and South America. Some were specially privileged to work supportively under national leaders in areas where new and original Christian work was developing. Trainees from Europe returned to ministry in their homelands.

Famous quotes containing the words training and/or programme:
“The Führer is always quite cheerful, cheerful with all his heart, when he is having tea with his friends during the night, or when he is training his dogs!”
—Martin Bormann (1900–1945)
“The idealist’s programme of political or economic reform may be impracticable, absurd, demonstrably ridiculous; but it can never be successfully opposed merely by pointing out that this is the case. A negative opposition cannot be wholly effectual: there must be a competing idealism; something must be offered that is not only less objectionable but more desirable.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
