Once a Local Lay-Pastor has successfully completed their probation period, they move to their core development. During this period they are required to complete the remaining four core Local Lay-Pastor modules at Cliff College. They also need to demonstrate they are meeting all of the core competencies by the end of this period to achieve accreditation as a Local Lay-Pastor.
Regular line-management meetings are key to the success of meeting and evidencing all of the core competencies. Effective conversations will identify giftings and strengths and areas that need developing, providing appropriate support and actions. The Line-Management Core form is designed to support and evidence this (LLP-LM-Core).
Once a Local Lay-Pastor has completed all of the six core Local Lay-Pastor modules at Cliff College and is demonstrating they are able to meet all of the core competencies, the line-manager conducts the Accreditation Assessment Meeting and completes the LLP-Accreditation form and supplies a copy to Ministries.
The Local Lay-Pastor then receives a letter confirming their accreditation.
