SYIS workshops are designed to enhance ministry effectiveness by providing training in key areas of biblical knowledge, godly attitudes and the practical skills needed for developing and maintaining healthy relationships. Training is very interactive, utilizing the most effective methods of interactive adult learning. Learning activities include some lecture, Bible study, small group tasks, whole group interaction, demonstrations of skills, practicing of skills and prayerful reflection.

SYIS workshops are normally four and one-half days in length. In some cases shorter versions of the workshop can be designed in accord with the needs and desires of the workshop sponsor and participants in consultation with International Training Partners.
