Bethany Land Institute's programs require a small trainee contribution, but we want to emphasize an important commitment: NO ONE IS DENIED DUE TO LACK OF FUNDS. We believe financial hardship should never be a barrier to accessing formation in Integral Ecology.
To ensure all qualified students can participate, we offer multiple financial support options including work-study programs, opportunities to market goods to cover costs, full sponsorships, and partial scholarships through our Caretaker Assistance Fund. Our approach fosters both ownership and dignity while making education accessible to Uganda's rural poor.
Fees vary by program. The table below illustrates typical support options for a two-year residential program. For the 3-year Junior Certificate and Outreach Programs, please contact us for current costs and schedules.

|---|---|---|---|---|

| Full Sponsorship (Complete) | 2 Years | - | $5,000 | Complete support for entire two-year residential program |

| Work-Study Program | Program duration | Variable | Variable | Trainees work to offset program costs |

NO ONE IS DENIED DUE TO LACK OF FUNDS. We work with each student to find a financial solution that enables their participation in the program.
Every student's financial situation is unique, and we're committed to working with you to find a solution that makes the Caretaker Training Program accessible. Whether you're interested in applying for a full sponsorship, partial scholarship, work-study arrangement, or a combination of support options, we encourage you to have an open conversation with us about your needs.
