Placements

Candidates for any ministry within the Church of Scotland have to undertake a series of practical placements during which they are attached to a local congregation under the supervision of a trained and accredited supervisor.

These placements vary in length and some are full-time, depending on the course of formation being followed.

All supervisors are given full training, and are well supported by the staff of Faith Action in this most important task.

For those training for FTWS or Diaconate, your final placement will be a 15-month probationary period. For those training for OLM it will be 12-months.
