Trendsetters
Successful applicants receive training in personal discipleship, basic theology, personal leadership development, counselling and programming, as well as presentation skills such as drama and clowning. Trendsetters are also trained in the facilitation and presentation of the SU Lifeskills course. After the initial training period, the Trendsetter will be assigned to one of a SU Community Schools Worker. He/she will work alongside the Schools Worker for the period that he/she is involved in SU. Trendsetters will help the Schools Worker present the Lifeskills courses in schools. They will also be involved in running camps on weekends and during the holidays. Trendsetters may also be required to perform certain admin duties as well as help in the general maintenance of SU property and equipment (for example: work on a campsite). Each Trendsetter will need to enlist friends who will offer prayer and financial support. Fees need to be paid at the beginning of each month. Fees cover training costs as well as all the feels of the camps that the Trendsetter attends. Overseas candidates and candidates from other provinces will also need to raise additional financial support in order to cover their board and lodging. Help and advice will be given to students accepted onto the programme in the raising of the required support. Who can be a Trendsetter?
