Our River College Internship Year is an opportunity to go deeper in your discipleship, grow in your leadership, and gain first hand experience of ministry.
Choose one or more of our 8 ministry streams:
- Coffee
- Kids
- Media
- Operations
- Social Justice
- Sports
- Worship & Production
- Youth & Students
At River College we want to help release life-changing leadership in our interns. Over our one-year course, through a mixture of classroom teaching in theology and Biblical studies, training in Christian leadership, mentoring from our senior staff team, and practical experience on one of our internship streams, River College interns will discover and develop their God-given gifts, ready to transform our church, our town, our nation, and beyond.
Interns will also benefit from teaching from a wide variety of expert contributors, have opportunities to train and work as baristas at our award-winning coffee shop, Applaud Coffee, receive free books, and get team tickets to HTB Focus (our annual church festival) and other HTB Network events. River College is completely free because we are passionate about investing in young Christian leaders, and we’ll be able to cover some of your living costs, and offer some paid hours at Applaud Coffee (subject to interview and availability), too.
River College starts on 21st September 2026!
