Competency Profiles as Basis for MA in Transformational Urban Leadership Course Design - By |
| This is a summary of inputs from the WEA Missions Commission Cross-cultural profiling process, the Encarnacao Brasil and Bangkok gatherings, |
| NCIBC, and ten grassroots training conferences. It includes comprehensive cross-cultural, and churchplanter outcomes, but movement leadership |
| and specialist ministry outcomes need more refining. Ongoing profiling discussions will add or delete some of these. The next step is to compare |
| the proposed courses with these and see what is missing, then to redefine these with appropriate language for level 9 outcomes e.g. experience |
| "living in a slum community" needs to be redefined as something like, "critically evaluate an experienceof living in a slum community". The step |
| after that is to ask which of the outcomes for each course should actually be evaluated and how, as we can rarely evaluate everything. There is |
| also a separate set of pre - MA assessment competencies that have surfaced from these years of process. These were largely derived by looking |
| at the goals of the program in terms of progressions from evangelist, pasttor, teacher, comm development worker into apostolic and broad scale |
| crosscultural movement leadership roles, but I have laid them out according to proposed course as at this point that helps show the deficiencies of |
| both this process and the courses proposed |

The student population is comprised of two major groups: |
| OO |
Overall Course Goals |
The majority will be movement leaders, church leaders, activist believers, and business entrepreneurs who want to |
| extend their skills into wider movement leadership among the urban poor. |
| Existing workers with a number years experience and proven servant ability who are progressing from pastoral, |
| evangelistic, teaching, prophetic or diaconal (community development) roles into future apostolic team leadership of |
| multiplying urban church movements in the slums across a city. |
| Those preparing to be pioneers who would catalyse new movements in cross-cultural settings among the urban poor in |
| the poorest cities of the world. |
| Up to 1/3 of applicants may be drawn from among those intending to serve the urban poor from a diaconal or justice |
| role, and wanting to use business or professional training and experience to socially, politically, economically and |
| spiritually liberate the poor. |
| Some will do this in church-based advocacy, community development or community organisation processes within |
| Some will do this through non-governmental organizations (e.g. World Vision, Oxfam, Tear Fund) or foundations, |
| multilateral development agencies (e.g., the United Nations, World Bank Group, OECD, WTO), refugee and |
| Some will do this through government ministries, and business enterprises, or through professions such as teaching, |
| journalism, development planning, and administration, especially within less-developed regions. |
