Rookie Training focuses on the time a person joins staff to the first year of employment. It contains two key training initiatives: The Fundamentals and Training Camp. The goal is to provide the staff member clarity in his or her calling to FCA and commitment to the competencies of a staff member.
The Fundamentals:
The Fundamentals serve as an introduction to the ministry of FCA. Staff will gain a better understanding of the ministries of FCA around the Four C’s and “Best Practices.”
- Training of the FCA Basics – Four C’s, Administrative, Fundraising, Technology

Training Camp:
Training Camp is an opportunity for staff to build the skills necessary to accomplish their FCA role. New staff are automatically enrolled in this week-long experience at the National Support Center in the first available class after their first 90 days and The Fundamentals have been completed.
