Lots of students are running Alpha for their friends in coffee shops, homes, schools and wherever young people get together. Here's how to get started:
1 - Register your Alpha course.
It's fast and simple to register an Alpha. Then you'll have access to the training videos, Alpha talks, and info sheets specifically for student-led Alphas. Add other leaders and helpers in the "Team" section so they have access too!
2 - Watch the training videos.
After you log in, you will find the two training videos in the "Series Materials" section on the left-hand side. There are two videos: "Values, The Experience, and Small Groups" and "Alpha Youth Day and Prayer Ministry" (approx. 20 minutes each).
🎉 Bonus Video: Students share how they ran Alpha at their schools.
3 - Invite your friends!
After you log in, you can find promotional materials like social media images, guest invitations, poster and banner images to print, and the Alpha Youth Series trailer in various formats. Invite all your friends!
4 - Download the new Student-Led Resources.
In the Series Materials section, you'll find a zip file with materials to equip and prepare you for a successful Alpha (eg. Letter to the Principal, running Alpha in schools, etc). Discuss these with your Youth Leader who can download the Mentor Resources zip file, also in MyAlpha.
GRADE 10 STUDENTS! 📣 If you'd like to grow in your faith, personal life, goal setting, and community impact while connecting and collaborating with other youth across Canada...then apply to join the Student Leadership Collective in 2026! More info here.
