Thursday 7:00pm-9:00pm (doors open at 6:30pm) and Friday8:00am-4:00pm (doors open at 7:30am)

SOE’s Standards Introductory Workshop (SIW) is a 10-hour seminar designed to help practitioners understand how they can incorporate and achieve competence in all Seven Standards. The workshops are taught by experienced SOE trainers, are interactive, and use case studies and small group discussions. It allows organizations to discover the implications of the Standards and begin applying them to their specific ministry context.

The SIW includes a resource notebook and *lunch on the second day.

These are two separate but uniquely linked events.  You must select one ticket for STM and the SOE SIW Pre-Conference ticket if you are attending both.
