Winter Finances
IBS & NEW STAFF ORIENTATION
Below are the estimated costs for IBS & New Staff Orientation. This is a four-week training that includes: IBS classes, orientation to Cru, and Ministry Partner Development training. For those who have not been commissioned yet.
* Family Housing cost is for two connecting rooms. If you would like one room, use the “Couple” cost for housing.
** A Senior Staff/New Staff couple will pay $900 for MPD Tuition.
*** After the end of NSO, your conference-related costs will be charged directly to your staff account.
**** In addition to food and other costs, we strongly encourage everyone to leave a housekeeping tip of $2.00/person per night. If you are staying 20 nights, then we would encourage you to leave a tip of $40 for housekeeping (couples would leave $80).
***** The estimated subtotal does not include any travel costs. Add your estimated travel expenses to calculate your individual estimated support need.
****** A 12 percent administrative charge is deducted by Cru from all support raised by a staff member. These funds are used for overseas expansion and to help fund the administrative services provided to staff by our World Headquarters. You will need to account for this when calculating how much support to raise.
NEW STAFF ORIENTATION
Below are the estimated costs for New Staff Orientation. This is a 9-or-10-day training that includes: Orientation to Cru, Ministry Partner Development training, and one virtual IBS Course.
If you will only be attending New Staff Orientation, please be aware that you will need to take 2 additional required IBS courses (about 2.5 weeks) the next time they are offered. Keep in mind that this will necessitate travel to two conferences, which may result in a greater expense. For example, if you attend NSO this Winter, you would attend Summer IBS.
* Family Housing cost is for two adjoining rooms. If you would like one room, use the “Couple” cost for housing.
** A Senior Staff/New Staff couple will pay $900 for MPD Tuition.
