The Seattle School prepares artists, pastors, therapists, counselors, and entrepreneurs to be leaders, healers, and culture-shapers. Training comes in many different forms. Whether you are ready for an immersive graduate degree program, interested in short but intensive certificates or weekend conferences, or just looking for brief, focused evening lectures, we offer programs to fit your needs and schedule.
You’re ready to dive deep and develop your calling
in an immersive graduate program.
Prepare to lead the church in new ways
Our three-year Master of Divinity (MDiv) program prepares you to see and lead the church in new ways as it evolves with culture. Richly multi-denominational, it meets the ordination requirements for a variety of faith traditions.
Live out your incarnational calling through counseling psychology
Our three-year Counseling Psychology graduate program is rooted in the belief that we are created, known, wounded, and healed in the context of relationship. Our Trinitarian Theology gives roots to our theory of change, and our psychodynamic methodology develops thoughtful, committed practitioners. You’ll engage your mind, body, and soul as you gain the knowledge, hands-on skill, and personal awareness needed to facilitate healing and transformation.
Find your vocation, rooted in theology and culture
Our two-year MA in Theology & Culture trains you to make meaning and lead change at the intersection of theology and culture. Attune yourself to the narratives of God, others, yourself, and the cultural context that surrounds you to become transformative storytellers and provocateurs of change.
You are looking for substance and credentials,
without giving up your day job.
World-class training in trauma recovery with Dr. Dan Allender
The Allender Center is a training and transformation hub for pastors, therapists, lay counselors, and community leaders to understand their own stories in order to more deeply enter the lives of those they are called to love and serve, especially in the area of trauma and abuse recovery. From intimate hands-on workshops to large-scale conferences, we offer a variety of training opportunities, all developed by Dr. Dan Allender and The Allender Center Teaching Staff.
Discover a new way of being the church
In this series of four-day sessions you will reimagine your community as you go beyond the programs, buildings, and liturgy we often see as “church.” Dr. Dwight Friesen, Paul Sparks, and Tim Soerens curate this collaborative, practical think-tank focused on equipping leaders to live out shalom in your unique place.
