Vocational Development

Your Seminary career will be enriched by set activities that address your vocational development alongside your academic preparation. Some of these are requirements while others are courses or activities you can choose to participate in. For students who anticipate future service in the Evangelical Covenant Church, these opportunities include a Call to Ministry process which will help you understand the process as well as get a head start on building relationships and preparing for a call.
