These same methods and skills are brought to bear in the Seminary's programs for practicing clergy in the parochial setting. Accredited by the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education, these programs make use of the clinical methods previously limited to institutional settings, and provide considerable benefit to those already engaged in ministry. Through individual and peer evaluation, ministry is translated into a training program with greater immediacy and effectiveness than ordinarily available to theological students. Applicants may be clergy who are able to take leave of their cures or seminary graduating seniors who wish to pursue post-seminary graduate studies. Applications must be submitted by December 1 of the academic year preceding the one for which the grant is desired.
Forms are available in the dean's office.
