Boundaries & Inclusion Training
Your Nebraska Synod is excited to launch a new rotational boundaries and inclusion training program this year. No more hassle of keeping track of whether you are due for training or what level of training you need. Everyone will cycle through one year of boundaries and ethics, followed by two years of inclusion (with a different focus each year). The years will coincide with the liturgical calendar, so we are in Year B of training. Year B (or BE) covers Boundaries and Ethics in one session. All sessions are on Zoom, except for one in-person training specific to PMAs available prior to PMA Convocation. Registration for the PMA session is available now. Registration for all other sessions will open Friday, March 1. Register for the one session that works with your schedule. The one-day training (10 – 4 Central/9 – 3 Mountain).
Cost: $25. Continuing Education Hours: 5
All rostered ministers and PMAs are required to take Boundaries and Ethics this year no matter when your last training was. Boundaries and Ethics will not be offered again until 2027.
