3. The next stage is where we ask for full APPLICATION PAPERS AND MEDICAL FORM. On this we ask for three addresses of referees, including one from your church leader.

4. INTERVIEW. Once your references are in, if we feel we could offer you a placement, we would arrange for you to come for an interview with us or with a WEC representative in your area.

5. We then ask you to do some PRE-DEPARTURE READING. This will help you to prepare for your placement.

6. If your application is successful, and before leaving we will invite you to an ORIENTATION COURSE.This will be a vital opportunity to prepare and to meet other Trekkers.
