Train-the-Trainer
September 20-24, 2026
Summit’s Train-the-Trainer Conference prepares Christian school leaders to build sustainable biblical worldview immersion on their campus. Instead of relying on external training, schools develop internal leaders who can train, coach, and support their faculty over the long term.
This multi-day immersive experience equips leaders with practical worldview immersion training, coaching skill development, and guidance in creating a customized implementation plan.
Participants return to their campuses prepared to train and support faculty, helping to make worldview formation part of the school’s culture—not just a one-time initiative.
BWI Conference
January 4 & 5, 2027
Many schools have biblical worldview curriculum in place, yet still wrestle with a deeper question: How do you create a school culture where students don’t just learn truth, but genuinely own it? This two-day Summit Conference was designed to help educators and Christian school leaders answer that question.
Built around the principles of Biblical Worldview Immersion (BWI) developed by Dr. Roger Erdvig in Beyond Biblical Integration, this experience equips Christian school leaders and teachers to move beyond worldview as a subject taught in the classroom and toward worldview as a culture intentionally formed throughout the entire student experience.
BWI involves Christian school leaders and teachers creating experiences and environments in schools and classrooms that align with how a Biblical worldview is formed in individuals.
