What Staff Are Saying

Colleen Degen

AD, Chicagoland

"This was such a gift that we really couldn't replicate without all of your help. The staff are already noticing their students being more prepared, more engaged with each other, and everyone agreed that we should do it in a shortened format for next summer."

Morgan Folgers

CSM, Chicagoland

"Our students love the Playbook resources. The students appreciated the ways each course explained (in depth) each ministry task and next step. It helped them feel more confident in their leadership pursuits."

FAQs

No, you don't have to, but we encourage you to do so to familiarize yourself with the platform and material. This is helpful especially when debriefing with your student/volunteer.

Just use your InterVarsity credentials and you'll be able to sign in as easily as you do for your InterVarsity email and other staff sites!

Yes! Send them a course link directly (copy and paste the landing page URL). When they click "Take this course" for the first time, they will be prompted to create a new account. Then they'll be able to access the full Playbook.

After that, they'll just need to make sure they are signed in to take more courses in the future.

We can give you access to progress reports when you give us a list of your student/volunteers names and emails. Book a call with us for a consultation for details.

Thanks to generous ministry partners, we are providing this service to you and your ministry team for free!
