As with any form of higher education, the student is ultimately responsible for all fees, costs and expenses of the three-year program.

    Although the responsibility rests on the participant, CEF will provide training and accountability for fund-raising so that by the time the three-year program is complete, there should be little or no financial indebtedness.

    When an applicant is accepted into the program an account will be established at the CEF World Headquarters where donations can be received for education and other ministry related expenses.

A budget will be established for each aspect of the program.

    A small salary (approximately $1500/month) will be included in the budget for the second and third years.

    An estimate of costs follows. This is merely an estimate for planning purposes only. There are many variables within the program so costs will fluctuate widely from student to student.
