Delivery Notes
In-Ministry requires four years of off-campus learning encircling 15 months of on-campus study. While interns remain in pastoral settings, annual course work is experienced via extension, contextual, and Internet delivery. Nine to fourteen-day extension and contextual classes take students away from their ministery sites twice a year, whereas the yearly internet course is taken at home over 8 weeks. During these four-years of actual ministry experience, a trained mentor supports the intern's growth in acquiring expected pastoral competencies.

The InMinistry MDiv option allows students to begin work on a Master of Divinity while remaining in ministry. This two-year pre-campus delivery emphasizes a cohort-based, thematic, and contextualized approach to learning and requires having a trained mentor.
The InMinistry course load is delivered through two-week intensives at various NAD sites, plus one internet-based course per year. Students electing the InMinistry delivery complete 24 semester credits prior to their arrival on campus. They can expect their total MDiv program to take about 3½ years.
