Equipping the next generation of leaders to advance the mission of knowing Christ and making Christ known
Sagebrush Academy of Leader Training (SALT) is an intensive development program to prepare participants for vocational and nonvocational ministry. SALT focuses on key components that are designed to help every participant develop as an individual, a minister and a leader. By investing in your leadership through SALT, your love and knowledge of Jesus Christ will grow in amazing ways.
Pastors and ministry veterans will teach sound doctrine and practical ministry providing students with a greater Christian biblical worldview and understanding of the Bible.
There is a significant amount of reading, research, and personal study time required to successfully complete SALT. We encourage students to take one class and focus on what God is teaching them through that study.

Although the school is not currently accredited, the courses provided are on par with many Bible college programs around the country.
Students will need to plan for a time commitment of around 2 hours per week per course. This includes time for watching online classes and personal study.
Students of SALT will be responsible to cover the $15 charge per course for the semester. Most courses will also have book costs associated with the specific course.
A believer who is looking to strengthen their spiritual walk and has the time and personal discipline needed to complete college-level classes online. They should be someone who either attends a Sagebrush campus or is dedicated to watching services online.
