Supervised parish ministry for ELCA Word and Sacrament candidates, comprising a minimum of 2000 hours, typically over the course of twelve months. Student interns practice a broad range of ministerial skills necessary for pastoral ministry, integrating their academic learning with practical experience in the formation of their own pastoral identity. Internship is an ecclesiastical requirement of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America for candidates for ordained ministry. As such, the seminary administers the internship program for its ELCA students on behalf of the ELCA, and in partnership with the ELCA, the various Candidacy Committees of our ELCA students, and the congregations and other agencies which serve as teaching sites for the interns. While student online transcripts show academic credits for internship, those credits are strictly for university administrative purposes and do not count as credit hours toward graduation.
