We have never before felt such urgency as we do
today in regard to the training of Christian
leaders for Churches, ministries, community service
and business.
Annesbrook Leadership College provides training
that embraces practical equipping and personal de-
velopment partnered with Christian theology taught
from the Bible. The very heart of ALC is to practically
equip, raise and release leaders into all nations with
a Christ centred foundation carrying that which will
sustain them in every area of their life and ministry.
We are very privileged to be part of what God is
doing in the lives of those whom God has brought to
our Leadership College. One of the greatest miracles
we see is lives permanently transformed to reflect
the amazing character of God.
We pray that as you read the contents of this pro-
spectus you will also prayerfully consider joining us
on this incredible journey for 2018 and beyond.
ANNESBROOK LEADERSHIP COLLEGE TRUSTMessage from the Board of Trustees
Brent & Viv LiebezeitBoard Chair

For almost six years Cheryll and
I have had the privilege of being
trusted with leadership at ALC.
Every year has seen growth
and new ground broken and
that has been motivating and
encouraging.
It is impossible not to be excited
when people of all ages step into
the programmes with almost
no knowledge of what is ahead
but with definite conviction and
expectation about their walk with
God and service to His Kingdom.
The beginning, however, doesn’t
compare with the complete joy at
the end when learners step out
of the programme with strength,
knowledge, confidence, personal
growth and a powerful desire to
extend the Kingdom with solid
foundational understanding of
Scripture and their call, gifts and
passions.
Seeing students move into
employment (some have never
worked before) and positions
of influence and leadership
makes every challenge pale into
insignificance.
We are privileged to be a
registered Private Training
Establishment and accredited to
deliver national qualifications. We
are growing. We have a distinct
place in four regions now and a
fifth one likely in 2018. ALC
currently supports the work of 12
different Churches and commu-
nity initiatives in four regions with
high quality training for interns.
Consider our programmes and
how we could serve you in your
context. We would be delighted to
partner with you!

Philosophical Statement
Our intention is to provide learners with a safe
environment to encourage self-development and
personal growth.
Our passion is for balanced and Biblically-
grounded leaders to be deployed to all levels of
the community and vocations. We believe these
leaders should bring an expression of integrity and
ethics guided by the Christian faith wherever
they serve.
We desire to prepare minds to learn, seek, re-
search, reason and achieve, unlocking their
potential in order to reach their goals.
“Work ready, world ready”

InternshipsWhat is an internship?
Year one (level 4) students will be
placed in an area of the Church
or organisation which matches
their particular interests and
strengths. It is important to note
that internships are varied and
are specific to individual Churches
and organisations. We aim to
enable students to experience a
variety of tasks during their time
interning with ALC.
Can I choose my own placement?
• Full training and support pro-
vided every step of the way.
• Explore a unique and special
career path.
• Network with professionals.
Why intern?
Transferable skills are a core set
of skills and abilities which can
be applied to a wide range of
different jobs and industries, and
throughout life.
What is a transferrable Skill?
Yes! You will be paired with a
professional placement manager
who is experienced in the field
of ministry or service specific to
your internship.
Will I receive training?
An internship is an un-paid work experience placement with a church or non-profit organisation. You will gain
real world experience in live work environments and learn new transferable skills that will benefit your work
life and personal life.
28
This program will increase your skills through
participating in the practical day to day opera-
tion of your Church or non-profit organisation,
and will help you engage and grow through
invaluable “hands-on” experience.
The internship is designed to equip people to
lead in every sphere of life, whether that is in
Ministry through the local Church, in retail, in
nursing and healthcare, administration or any
other vocation.

Student FeedbackStudent feedback recently has been very
encouraging:
“Study was intimidating for me based on my High
school experience. I now feel confident I could
study toward anything I wanted to”
“Building a team up is one of the top things I
have enjoyed about my time doing the internship.
Working with people, encouraging them, identify-
ing their individual gifts and passions and finding a
place for them to be used and developed within the
framework of our youth ministry has been awe-
some. At the beginning if the internship it was just
myself and one other leading the youth ministry.
Now we have a team of about six adults and a great
team of young people rising and growing in their
faith and leadership ability.”
“These kinds of testimonials remind us why we
do what we do. ALC is a unique opportunity for
Disciples of all ages and academic abilities to be in-
volved in something for themselves and ultimately
for the growing of the Kingdom. It is an opportunity
to give enthusiasm and deep desire rich soil to grow
in and foundation to build on.”

you never knew you had. You will not only have hands on experience in a
safe and supportive environment, but you will be guided and mentored
