ABOUT DTS
The Discipleship Training School (DTS) is a 5+month program that combines 3months of biblical teachings from a variety of international speakers, with 2months of practical field work, where we put it all in action. Here in Jamaica we have two coming up in 2024: our Deaf DTS, and our Worship & Intercession DTS.
​
All our DTSes are based on the YWAM International Values, submitted to the structure provided by the University of the Nations, and based on the YWAM statements of beliefs. To learn more about any of the above, click the relevant text.
