Nondegree Learning Tracks

Is a graduate degree or certificate not quite the right fit? Explore the Bethany experience or continue your education by taking a single course. Students can also pursue nondegree ministerial training within the Church of the Brethren through our partnership with the Brethren Academy for Ministerial Leadership.
