TRAINING AND MENTORING Denver Seminary is committed to equipping leaders for kingdom service who are theologically astute, godly in character, and highly competent for mobilizing ministry to address the needs of the world. This vision requires intentional and purposeful partnerships between each student, the Seminary, and church/parachurch ministries as service and learning contexts. Denver Seminary's training and mentoring program asks students to determine their own learning needs in character formation and ministry skill development. In this way, a student's formation will be personalized to their past experiences and to their anticipated future ministry occupations. While this learning is personalized, it is not individualized—each student goes through this program under the relational group of other students. A mentoring director will oversee, resource, and help shape this personalized, mentored formation experience. The training and mentoring process is a part of the core curriculum for every degree program at Denver Seminary. Each T/M course is described briefly below, and the T/M requirement varies by degree plan as follows: • MA academic program (AE, BS, CS, TH): T/M 501, 601, 611, 713 • MA professional programs (CFSC*, CH, CM, LD, YFM): T/M 501, 502, 601, 602, 611, 612 • MA in Justice and Mission program: T/M 501, 601, 611 • MDiv program*: T/M 501, 502, 601, 602, 611, 612, 701/702, 711/712 • MA in Counseling program: T/M is incorporated into required counseling courses 122
