For all missionaries working through the previous rollout of required courses and the associated new and updated policies (June 14-August 15, 2021), check out the helpful Getting Started and General Questions page. |
Reliant staff are dedicated to furthering the Gospel and are committed to upholding high standards of ethical, professional, and Christian behavior. Nevertheless, it is necessary on a regular basis to remind ourselves of how we should ensure that all individuals, including staff, volunteers, and those to whom we minister, are treated with honor, respect, and dignity as image-bearers of God. For this reason, all Reliant staff will need to complete annual training courses on harassment prevention and child abuse awareness.
