Time Commitment
Altogether, residents should expect to commit a total of 25 hours per week: 16 hours per week in a
specialized ministry to gain ministry experience, 2 hours of coaching/mentoring, 2 hours of development in
a cohort, and approximately 5 hours of continued education. Specific work schedules are unique to each
ministry. Most require weekend commitments. Residents are free to hold additional employment, provided
that the residency is priority and your other employment does not interfere with residency expectations.
Residency cohorts begin mid-June and conclude mid-May.
