Assessment Process 

Multiexcerpt
MultiExcerptNameassessment

An abbreviated assessment process will be completed at go.reliant.org, looking into key things that are changing in the new international role. It will include things such as: 

Documentation (application)

  • Spouse reference & current supervisor reference
  • Updates on Job Description/Ministry Skills, Calling to Ministry, Moral Conduct/Emotional Health, and MTD Readiness - related to the new international role
  • International testing in partnership with International Personnel Consultants & Mission Training International

Supervisor Interview

After submitting an application, an interview will be held with your anticipated future supervisor for the international role.

Reliant Interview

You will also talk with a Reliant interviewer, which will include discussing some of the information reported from your international testing packet.

Decision

Your anticipated future supervisor and Reliant will make a decision in regards to the transfer. If your transfer application is approved, you will move forward with a season of additional MTD and preparation for your international role.

Info
The standard time for this process, once a transfer application is submitted, is 8-10 weeks.

International Orientation

MultiExcerptNameIntl Orientation
Once your transfer to an International role is approved, you will not need to go through another training. Instead, you will need to connect with the International Department of the Missionary Resources team for an international orientation. During this orientation, we will explain the aspects of employment that are unique to international missionaries and discuss your anticipated timeline and other specific next steps.

MultiExcerptNameMTD Hopes & Timeline

At this point, Reliant will need to see an initial plan for the following questions (it may be helpful to think through some of these earlier on):

  • When do you plan to start MTD for your international role, and how much time do you plan to devote to MTD?
  • When do you plan to transition away from current job responsibilities?
  • Do you need to change your employment status while you raise additional support (you have the opportunity to change to Associate or a Part-Time status in order to accrue funds more quickly)? If so, when?
  • When do you hope to attend MTI cross-cultural training?
  • When do you hope to complete your fundraising? (Fundraising must be completed in order to be released to your new assignment.)
  • When do you hope to move to your international ministry location?
