Apprenticeship Program
Applications will open soon.
The purpose of the Apprenticeship Program is to develop talent and mentor future Samaritan’s Purse staff.
Apprenticeships kick-start a career through hands-on learning from an expert in their field.
Apprentices will have the chance to quickly build their professional network while honing their technical skills. After training, apprentices will both collaborate in and spearhead ministry wide projects.
Apprenticeship opportunities equip professionals for future leadership within Samaritan’s Purse.
Through presentations from top executives, simulations, and projects, apprentices will grow in the competencies that define a professional at Samaritan’s Purse and will gain the knowledge and tools they need to serve effectively wherever they are assigned.
