What is Project Nehemiah?
Project Nehemiah is a face-to-face interactive training workshop with the objective of equipping teachers and leaders to motivate and train others. Nehemiah is a model to us. Through prayer, planning and developing vision among local leaders, he accomplished what seemed impossible: rebuilding the broken walls of Jerusalem. iTEE Global uses his model to equip local leaders.
Project Nehemiah is a 20-hour workshop teaching participants how to effectively apply Jesus’s interactive teaching principles to address the student’s head, heart and hands. Learning these skills allows the student to teach Biblical truth to others.
What You Will Learn
Project Nehemiah Workshop
What Will the Learning Environment Be Like?
This is a highly interactive and positive classroom environment with discussion-style teaching. Along with the teaching and facilitating from the front, there is also work in smaller table groups, each led by a facilitator. Group discussion is done with a workbook to keep you on track. You receive materials to revisit so you remember what you have learned.
Who Should Attend?
The Workshop is especially designed to anyone who already has an active teaching or facilitating role, such as Pastors, Elders, Deacons, Women’s ministry, Life Group or Bible Study Leaders, and Youth or Children’s Workers.
But truly, this workshop will benefit anyone who wants to develop their skills in teaching, whether they are currently an active teacher or not.

Overseas, the Project Nehemiah Workshop is used to train church leaders who learn to facilitate parts of the 12-week Bible courses interactively in person in their own native languages.
