Anyone can join a Alpha Course and it is free! (You may be asked to pay a contribution towards the cost of the dinner and the weekend)

Alpha is for everyone, especially:
- Those wanting to investigate Christianity
- New Christians
- Newcomers to the church
- Those who want to brush up on the basics

Alpha runs in every type of church, including Anglican, Roman Catholic, Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, Salvation Army, Free Church, Pentecostal, Assemblies of God and Independent Churches. All the churches provide the same material, making alterations only to suit local culture

Alpha is also run in homes, offices, prisons and halfway houses. There are also special courses catering to youths, students, different languages e.g.  Mandarin, Japanese, Tamil, Burmese, etc.
