Behind every great volunteer youth worker
is great volunteer training
Few people stumble into youth ministry as "naturals". Most of us want and/or need training to be more effective in ministry. YMU helps make great youth workers! So whether you're a new volunteer or a youth ministry vet, we've got specific training to help you increase your skills, solidify your confidence, ignite your passion, and deepen your faith.

Quick 10-Minute Training Videos
The number 1 excuse we hear is, "I'm too busy to attend that training!" With YMU you can now counteract that statement with an empowering response, "Just give me 10 minutes a week/month/etc...." If a leader can't invest a few minutes of learning, chances are good they won't become healthy leaders. YMU is filled with short videos that pack a big punch. Hook them on one and they'll quickly want a 2nd... learning triggers learning.

All-Star Instructors with Decades of Experience
Our instructors literally write the books on youth ministry. These are not rookies, but veteran practitioners and academics with decades of youth ministry experience. Most churches can't afford their in-person honorariums... now you can have several all-star voices to choose from.

Reflection Answers Sent to YOU as the Lead Youth Worker
A great perks of YMU is that every time a volunteer completes a course YOU will receive their thoughts and reflections. This will provide you a simple opportunity to affirm their learning and follow-up with conversations that will take the practicality of the content and allow you to help contextualize it.
