Saint Meinrad offers two post-graduate certificates that allow students to obtain pastoral competencies in reflective practices and spiritual direction.

Students who successfully complete a certificate in reflective practices will learn that ministry leadership is providing support and care for those serving others: an overworked pastor, parish minister, chaplain or deacon, etc. This program will give you the tools and competencies you need to provide such support and receive it yourself. The certificate focuses on the field of pastoral care.

Saint Meinrad's graduate certificate in spiritual direction is an 18-credit, three-year program intended to give you the intellectual framework and practical skills to serve as an effective spiritual director.
