The Discipleship Training School (DTS) is a required training for future Youth With A Mission (YWAM) staffs and also an entry-level prerequisite of all courses and all degree programs of the University of the Nations.

The DTS is an intensive Christian training course beginning with a 12- week lecture/teaching (KNOW GOD) phase followed by an 8 to 12-week practical field assignment (MAKE HIM KNOWN).

The DTS is designed to encourage students in personal character development, to deepen a living relationship with God and to identify their unique individual gifts and callings in God.^[1]
