Continuing Education
  • Overview
  • As clergy and other religious professionals have learned, three years in even the best seminaries do not prepare them for everything they need to know in parish or other ministries. That makes a regular program of continuing education crucial if they want to grow in their skills and stay fresh in their perspective and commitment to their work. The continuing education program at CDSP is planned with an eye to supplementing ministering skills, refreshing and updating knowledge of the heritage, and offering space for reflection and renewal.

    If you live close to the campus or are here as a sabbatical visitor, you can take advantage of auditing courses. Brief refresher courses are offered during the Intersession term in January and the summer at the popular GTU Summer Session, which is fast becoming a nationally acclaimed program. The Counsel of Women, offered biennially, gathers women graduates on campus for fellowship, mutual support, consultation, and worship. Finally, the D. Min. Program brings all these elements together in a program that you plan around a particular concern in your ministry.

    And check the Center for Anglican Learning and Leadership page for further possibilities.
