Here’s a list of Frequently Asked Questions regarding the 90 Days of Mission.  We trust you will find the answer you are looking for, however if not, please Contact Us (link to Contact Us page) with your questions and we will endeavour to get an answer to you.

Is the Certificate III in Youth and Community Work (Christian) course Austudy Approved?

Yes.  Fusion Australia is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) with the Australian Government and the Certificate III training offered as part of the 90 Days of Mission is nationally accredited and Austudy Approved.  The National

Course Code is 69864.

How much does the 90 Days of Mission cost?

The cost in Australian Dollars is $1650.  This includes $120 per week for the 12 weeks to cover food, accommodation and training.  Plus $120 for the week long Foundations course in Poatina and $90 for the flight from Launceston to Melbourne on Feb 17.

Is the 90 Days of Mission just for young people?

No.  We have people who have applied and who are coming from around the world and who range in age from 16 through to 50.  It is youth and community training and is open to all ages of people who just want to make a difference in their communities.

I can’t commit to the whole 90 Days but am interested in the Short School of Mission from March 11 to 27^th.  What is this about?

Fusion will be running a two week Short School of Mission from Saturday March 11 to Monday March 27^th which will include 3 days of practical skills training to build the ‘open crowd’ such as living statues, balloon sculpting, clowning etc. The day before the Commonwealth Games start on March 15^th, Fusion International will be joining together with Quest More than Gold, OM, YWAM and other mission teams to share together, pray and ensure we are working together.  During the 10 days of the Commonwealth Games, Fusion and the Awakening movement will be supporting churches and communities across Victoria to run ‘Open Crowd’ festivals that welcome everyone in a community.  These might include Opening and Closing Night Festivals were the Opening and Closing Night ceremony is watched on big screens.  There will also be festivals held throughout the duration of the games which we will help run.  For more information on this option, registerand indicate your interest in the Short School of Mission.

Will students get to see some Commonwealth Games events in person?

Yes.  Students will be able to see at least one event during their time in Victoria.  However it is probably good to remember that the 90 Days of Mission is an Intensive Missions Training experience so if seeing the Games is your main focus then maybe the 90 Days isn’t for you just yet!

What about getting to Tasmania?

The flights to get to Launceston, Tasmania for orientation on 19 January are the responsibility of the student as well as the flights required to return home on 18 April. A comparison of cheap domestic flights in Australia can be found at www.webjet.com.au. For international students we would recommend you research and book flights from your country to Melbourne, and then use www.webjet.com.au for the Melbourne to Launceston flight.  If you have any trouble with this then let us know and we can help with researching bookings.

What is the Foundations Course about?

Foundations is a course that will open the doorway to an integrated lifestyle that will enable you to be more aware of the world around you and of God’s companionship with you in it. It is part of the 90 Days of Mission for several reasons, one of which is that it gives students a shared framework from which to work together over the duration of the 90 days.

What is the Uluru Pilgrimage option about?

This is an opportunity to journey with hundreds of people from across Australia who join in the annual Pilgrimage to the red centre of Australia.  You will learn about aboriginal culture, appreciate Australia like you never have before and start to understand yourself in new ways. This option at the end of the 90 Days of Mission is a profound way to extend what will be a life changing 3 months.  If you’re interested in checking out the pilgrimage from past years then go to www.schoolsinharmony.org.
