The Guild Training Course
The Guild runs a
Training Course as part of its commitment to the highest professional standards among its
Members. Candidates study four units, working under the supervision of local tutors; Foundation; Pastoral; Historian; and Administrator After successful completion of the units and a personal interview the Guild Diploma (Dip. G. V) may be awarded. However, after the successful completion of the Foundation Unit, a Foundation Certificate may be awarded to the candidate. Local Branches also arrange Training days as part of their annual programmes,The Guild Training Conference Every year the Guild hosts a four/five-day residential Training Conference which every Member of the Guild is invited to attend. The Conference allows Vergers from across the country and overseas an opportunity to meet and to share in the many acts of worship that are organised, culminating in the Solemn Eucharist on the final day. There are also a series of workshops organised on a variety of different subjects relevant to the work of a Verger, and a day trip to a place of interest. During the Training Conference the Guild Congregation meets to install new Officers, admit new Members and present diplomas and certificates.For further information, please contact:
