Faculty 

Educational programs for faculty in ATS member schools have three primary goals:

  • to identify and explore issues related to their vocation as theological educators,
  • to assess and rethink faculty roles in governance, curriculum, and service programs, and
  • to develop increased capacity to exercise leadership as faculty.

Under the current leadership education program for faculty, ATS will convene two consultations: one on curriculum revision and another on seminaries' increasing efforts in nondegree and service programs and the character of faculty work in these areas.
