CCN now offers comprehensive, practical training for volunteers working with kids from preschool through high school!

CCN's expert presenters will equip and prepare your volunteers by giving them an introduction to working with kids in general as well as targeted training for working with kids in specific age groups.

They'll be trained by presenters from David C. Cook publishers, Willow Creek Association's Promiseland Ministry, The Barna Group, and more.

These programs are available to anyone from a church that subscribes to CCN. If your church is a CCN subscriber contact your church office or contact CCN for information on how to sign up.
