Master’s Program, Customized Ordination Tracks, and Certificates
Today’s spiritual leaders and care providers need skills, personal traits, and cultural competencies to engage 21st-century individuals and communities.
Our Mission
Ezzree Institute provides educational and clinical training for spiritual care professionals, community leaders, and laypeople. Ezzree Institute is dedicated to the transformation of lives through addressing the human condition. Programs emphasize service to individuals and groups seeking support, connection, purpose, and meaning.
Our Programs
Ezzree Institute provides comprehensive training in both in-person communal and spiritual care contexts and the use of technology to engage in positive remote contact, camaraderie, and community. In addition to the tools, knowledge, and practical skills gained through clinical pastoral education and chaplaincy training, Ezzree Institute integrates media and cultural studies, interreligious education, and postreligious literacy in order to best serve our rapidly diversifying population.
Interreligious and Postreligious Education
The diversity, individualism, and eclecticism of 21st-century lives require spiritual care providers and community leaders to be especially sensitive, nimble, creative, and contextually aware. Understanding diverse traditions and individual paths is essential to cultivating compassion, gaining trust, and honoring the dignity of others.
Ordination Tracks
Students in the master’s program have the option to receive ordination as a Chaplain and Spiritual Counselor. Online Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) is incorporated into the master’s degree, making certification and employment eligibility possible upon successful completion of the program. If a student already has a master’s degree in a related field, there are also religion-specific Custom-Coordinated Ordination tracks available. Ezzree Institute works with the student’s religious/spiritual endorsement body to obtain a collaborative ordination recognition.
