During one or two months of residential training at the WorldView Center in Portland, Oregon, USA, basic skills are gained to use Integrated Christian Communication in ministry. This unique program equips leaders to become basic trainers of cross-cultural workers in church, missions, community development, education, and related areas.
This is training, not a series of academic exercises. Thus the emphasis is on doing and practice. Methods used include:
- Video and DVD presentation of case studies to provide initial guided practice in analysis and application of the Integrated Christian Communication model.
- Field work, developing skills in culture mapping, and recording/developing case studies.
- Introduction of relevant learning and teaching models through observation, demonstration, and
practice.
- Working with colleagues in small groups on specific problems, strengthening the ability to work cooperatively with colleagues,
- Gaining familiarity with online learning and working with a Mentor.
- Living in community at the WorldView Center, learning how to develop community among international residents.
