Note: The Southeastern District (SED) of the LCMS offers a Lay Training program using a cohort model. Courses marked with “-SED” are specifically designed for those cohorts. If you are not a member of one of their cohorts and are interested in an “-SED” class, please contact us at: mtc@missiontrainingcenter.com.

Are you taking classes as part of a certification process through your district or mission organization? Be sure to connect with that organization prior to starting at MTC. They may have a separate application process and they may have updated their track since we posted it to our site.
Are you taking classes for your own personal growth and desire to have a more mission-focused outlook as a Christian? Feel free to register for any non-cohort class at anytime.
Take a look around the site. Choose a class or two you would like to take from the list above and add them to your cart.
