The 6-month Trailblazers DTS experience is split into two unique terms; Lecture Term and Outreach Term.
During Lecture Term passionate and insightful lecturers will bring Biblically-based teaching on who God is, who you are, and how to live your calling. We’ll also engage in worship and prayer, 1-on-1 mentorship, group processing, exploration, and outreach across Niagara Falls. Our emphasis is on personal transformation, not just head knowledge.
Outreach Term focuses on answering the call of the Great Commission, activating the knowledge you gained and the gifts you discovered in a cross-cultural context. You and your outreach team will lead various projects that bring the Gospel to people in a way they understand, providing care and justice to the isolated and forgotten.
Lecture Term takes place in a large house near the world-famous Niagara Falls. Outreach Term locations are yet to be announced, and could be anywhere!
From Niagara Falls to the nations, DTS is a challenging and powerful experience of seeing people encounter Christ.

In Trailblazers DTS, everything centres around Jesus’ call to know God and make Him known. This is why we always pair in-class biblical training with in-the-field mission experience. Trailblazers DTS aligns with global standards and curriculum regulated by YWAM’s University of the Nations (UofN). You will grow alongside your team of passionate Jesus followers and discover who God is, who you are in Him, and how to live your calling.
Our modular approach to education focuses on personal application over head knowledge. Students benefit from the deep investment of guest lecturers who come for one or more weeks to teach in their area of expertise.
Live your God-given calling and discover the world of possibilities beyond DTS. DTS is the prerequisite for all further work and study with YWAM and our University of the Nations (UofN). Join the mission full-time anywhere in the world or find a course to further empower your missional calling.
