Youth Work training that lets you change the world.

Fusion Diploma in Youth & Community Work (Christian) (10707NAT) is a 2 year accredited course.

Fusion’s Diploma is a course for Christians who are willing to follow Jesus out of the church pews and into the streets of their communities.

As well as cutting edge training in the classroom, we also give our students the opportunity to live out the theory in a range of programs and activities that put them on the front line of innovative youth work. This includes the Pilgrimage to Uluru, a 10 day trip to the centre of Australia learning about pathways to reconciliation.

Fusion believes that being out in the field is vital to producing passionate, skilled youth workers, and so the course is delivered onsite from a variety of active Fusion Centres.

This 2 year course exposes you to the values, understandings and the 60 years experience of Fusion’s cutting-edge youth and community work.

Learn to listen and respond to the needs of local communities from Biblical, Missiological and faith-based frameworks.
