A Christian Educator walking boldly yet humbly as an example for all to follow
Rev. Claudette Simon Jackson Memorial Fund
The Rev. Claudette Simon Jackson Memorial Fund will serve to fund a PACE Academy Fellow that will receive a monthly stipend and free tuition to assist with the development of training and offerings for Women in Ministry (all types of ministry). The goal is to underwrite the cost of this Fellow for 3 years in order to allow them to complete graduate-level studies while helping to ensure other women in ministry are equipped with the tools they need to operate in the ministry they have been called to within the local church, or parachurch organization.
Earn Micro-Credentials through Specially-Tailored Pathways
With the help of our team of seasoned pastors and church leaders, we are developing micro-credentials that will be relevant and immediately applicable to you and your congregation.
How does it work?
THE PACE PROCESS
The process starts by earning Badges. Badges are earned by finishing the required Advanced Practical Theological Education (APTE) requirements such as readings, lectures, and practicum work.
Each Endorsement is made up of both required and elective badges.
Each Certificate includes a group of Endorsements. Assessments are embedded within our Endorsements to ensure that theory is put into relevant practice.
Featured Certificate
21st Century Church Leadership
You may have attended a seminary course decades before or read a book recently that felt disjointed from the realities that present church leaders face daily. With the trend of how society is functioning, suddenly every ministry needed a virtual counterpart. Maybe you were even faced with the challenge of cultivating a church culture amidst the dwindling disinterest of the community. From learning the technicalities of governing a church effectively to discovering how to care for your mental health, we had YOU in mind when we created this 21st Century Church Leadership Certificate Track.
