Accredited Ministry Training Programs
Hundreds of groups offer training for ministers, but only a few provide accredited degree programs. Accreditation ensures you that the training received meets rigorous standards established by the academic community and that it will be recognized by other accredited institutions. Texas Baptists have nine institutions of higher education that have met these standards under a variety of recognized accrediting agencies. Training for ministers is offered at various levels depending on your academic background and goals in ministry preparation. [ More ]
The Theological Education Locator is an Internet tool that allows you to choose the level of accredited theological education you need and find locations where that level of training is available. It also provides links to the university or seminary, where you can find out how to enroll in courses you need.
Workshops and Continuing Education for Ministers
The Congregational Leadership Team assists congregational leaders in the discovery of their calling and the development of their effectiveness while providing personal and professional support as we guide local churches to fulfill their mission. To help develop healthy, effective, Christ-like leaders, we can come to your church or association and present any of these workshops (or other topics that you need) for your church’s leadership or other selected participants. The lengths of the workshops vary, depending upon the perceived need by church leaders. Contact us to work out a time for us to come!
