Accelerate is our leadership training programme designed for curates in the HTB Network who will be planting or revitalising a church.  

Who is it for?

First & Second Year Curates

For first and second year curates, we offer termly workshops and coaching calls to help participants reflect on their emerging planting journey.

Third Year Curates

For curates in their final year, the Accelerate programme is more immersive.  Participants access weekly, live online training delivered by experts and practitioners in the world of church planting. Alongside this, they are invited to form smaller coaching groups to reflect on, and consolidate, their learning.
