Upcoming courses offered through the Brethren Academy for Ministerial Leadership are open to students in the Training in Ministry (TRIM) and Education for Shared Ministry (EFSM) programs, pastors and other ministers, and all interested persons.<\/p>\n
The academy staff note that while students are accepted after the registration deadlines noted below, those dates help determine whether there are enough students to offer a course. Many courses require pre-course readings, so students need to allow enough time to complete those readings before starting classes. Students are asked to not purchase texts or make travel plans until the registration deadline has passed and a course confirmation is received.<\/p>\n
