School Chaplaincy Program

In cooperation with YouthCARE, Vose offers courses to equip chaplains. You can study part-time on the job or full-time.

Two of our units, co-ordinated by Revd. John John Clapton, are specifically designed for school chaplaincy:

  • Ministry Formation for Educational Chaplaincy

  • Chaplaincy in an Educational Setting

These, combined with biblical and theological studies, units in youth or children's ministry, and supervised field education in schools, provide well-rounded, and internationally recognised courses.
