What is DTS?
The Discipleship Training School (DTS) is not just a good experience; it’s a life-changing school of application. DTS is a five month discipleship training program designed to challenge you in character development and cultivate a depth of intimacy with Jesus. As a student in Cambodia you will be immersed in a beautiful new culture, make a difference as you serve people with real needs, and study with participants from all over the globe!
3 Month Lecture Phase
The core of DTS is to Know God & Make Him Known. Training begins with a lecture phase which is focused on going deeper with Jesus. We are not simply amassing head-knowledge—we are applying truth! We do this through daily classes, community living, discipleship, worship, evangelism, prayer, and service.
2 Month Outreach
The Lecture Phase is followed by a two month frontier missions outreach where we respond to God’s call to ‘Go into all the world and disciple all nations’ (Matt. 28:19). DTS is the entry-level course to missions with YWAM and provides you with an open door to countless missions opportunities and further training in Youth with a Mission.
Why We Exist
We exist to ignite revival in Cambodia through training and sending young people to share the gospel.

In DTS I experienced that God is really looking after me and I developed a very close relationship with God during DTS in Battambang.
Through the DTS in Battambang God brought me into a deeper friendship and relationship with Him. During DTS, he acted as my Father, Lord, and friend. He is all that I need.
