Training and Mentoring
Denver Seminary's training and mentoring program, started by former president Clyde McDowell in 1998, was the first of its kind among evangelical, theological schools and led to an increase in student enrollment. The training and mentoring program places students with a team of mentors who help them design and pursue up to two learning contracts each semester, one focusing on spiritual growth and a second on professional development.
