Board University provides educational programs for active and retired members of the Benefits Plan, and their spouses, surviving spouses, and partners, as well as seminarians.
Board University upholds the value of lifelong learning, providing opportunities to learn about wholeness at specific stages of your life, career, or ministry.
When we are whole, we are able to bring our best gifts and energies to our work and our calls — and to everything we do. Wholeness allows us to live in harmony with God, our neighbors, and our families. It invites shalom.
That's why the Board of Pensions offers benefits and programs that foster your spiritual, health, financial, and vocational well-being — and why we educate for wholeness.
Board University provides programs to members of the Benefits Plan, including active and retired members — ministers and employees of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and affiliated organizations — and their spouses or surviving spouses and partners. We also lead seminars for seminarians, helping future congregational ministers get started on the path to wholeness early.
