The role of Country Coordinator is a crucial role available to anyone who is ACBC certified, has counseling ministry experience, and desires to have regular connection with pastors and ministry leaders in a specific country or region of the world to help them learn to be biblical counseling trainers to their people. Once a region or country is paired with the Country Coordinator, he or she is responsible for working with our staff and the local host(s) to oversee and teach at our Church Leadership Training program modules in country as well as any other counseling training events planned.

Many of our Country Coordinators are known and recruited by an OIC, however anyone qualified can serve with us to help organize in-country events and do teaching. This role can be extremely exciting in that you will have opportunities to connect with local pastors, elders, and other church leaders to help them flourish as biblical disciplemakers where they are. In addition, you will have opportunities to connect with and encourage our Associate Teachers and our interns as they teaching and/or serve with you in this ministry.
