A quick Message Before You Leave

<hr>Most church safety teams put new members on post after one service of observation. No documented training. No evaluated competency. No verified understanding of team policy. If something goes wrong, the team has nothing to show for how that member was prepared.STOP was built to fix that.The Safety Team Onboarding Program is a structured, eight-week field training program modeled on the law enforcement Field Training Officer model, adapted specifically for church safety teams. It moves every new member through four documented phases: Orientation, Observation, Guided Performance, and Solo Performance. Every service is documented. Every phase concludes with a formal evaluation. The team leader has a complete record from day one to final sign-off.This course covers everything you need to implement STOP at your church: the biblical foundation for structured training, how to select and qualify a Field Training Officer, how to use the Daily Observation Report correctly, how to evaluate performance honestly, how to handle a trainee who is not meeting standard, and how to have the separation conversation when necessary.All three program documents are included at no cost: the Program Guide, the Daily Observation Report, and the Phase Evaluation Rubric. Free to use as-is at any church. No signup required for the materials.Your congregation deserves a safety team that has been trained, evaluated, and verified before they stand post. This program gets you there.

The Safety Team Onboarding Program gives your church a structured, documented path for bringing new safety team members from day one to solo performance. Eight weeks. Four phases. Two forms. Built on the law enforcement FTO model and grounded in Scripture
