Practicum Overview

The purpose of the practicum is to strengthen district churches, pastors, and students through assimilation into the local church. Students will be observed in assigned areas and coached toward greater effectiveness in ministry. The program will fulfill the Practicum requirements for ministerial candidates adopted by the General Presbytery of the General Council of the Assemblies of God.

The Practicum is designed to glorify God and His Son, Jesus Christ, promote Biblical unity, encourage Spirit-filled living, develop ministerial integrity
