A Training Resource for All: NextGen Online

NextGen leader’s training conference is now an easy, accessible training resource for all. 

​For over 30 years, NextGen leaders training conference has played an integral role in developing leaders in youth and children’s ministry. Hosted by Katoomba Christian Convention (KCC), NextGen’s word-class training model offers practical tools to know and share the Bible in youth and children’s ministry, Scripture classes, home groups and 1- to-1 discipleship settings.  

By God’s grace, NextGen has played a pivotal role in training Christian leaders across Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Uganda and the Solomon Islands. As a result of attending NextGen, over 12,000 delegates have graduated from the program with a renewed love for God and confidence to read and teach the bible to others. We praise God that over the years, we have seen leaders trained and lives transformed; conversions for Christ and commitments to enter full–time pastoral or Christian ministry. 

A new format to train more disciples 

While NextGen has historically been offered as an in-person conference, the format has evolved to address the challenges presented by the pandemic. For this reason, in the past two years, NextGen has been offered in alternative and online formats. The benefits of these changes include a lower training cost and increased accessibility of gospel training for Christians living in regional, interstate Australia and overseas. 

Whilst longer-term plans are still being worked out for NextGen, KCC is committed to ensuring NextGen is available to train and equip individuals to know God’s Word and teach it to others. For now, NextGen will be made available as an easy, accessible online resource for all. By paying a one-off $99 contribution, delegates can join a membership-based portal which will be launched by the end of this year.  

The NextGen Online membership gives members access to all strand booklets and workshop content from NextGen 2022. This includes full access to four core short courses (previously named “strands”) and 11 practical video workshops for effective Christian ministry.
