Advance Your Church Leadership with The Church Network’s Continuing Education

Church leaders and administrators need ongoing education to stay effective in an ever-changing ministry landscape.

The Church Network offers CEU, CPE, and PDC educational credits, equipping professionals with the latest strategies in church management, financial oversight, and human resources.

Continuing Education That
Strengthens Your Ministry

CEUs (Continuing Education Units)

Designed for ministry professionals, CEUs provide essential learning opportunities in church administration, leadership development, and operational efficiency. Whether you’re refining your strategic planning skills or deepening your understanding of governance, CEUs keep you informed and prepared for the evolving demands of ministry. The Church Network’s CEU offerings ensure that leaders gain practical, applicable knowledge that directly enhances church operations.

These credits are useful for anyone in church administration, as well as those seeking to become a Certified Church Administrator or renew their CCA designation. 

CPEs (Continuing Professional Education)

Financial stewardship is critical for churches, and CPE courses help administrators stay up to date with accounting standards, budgeting best practices, tax regulations, and financial reporting. Church administrators who earn CPEs strengthen their ability to manage resources responsibly, ensure compliance, and promote transparency in financial operations. By participating in The Church Network’s CPE programs, church leaders gain the skills needed to navigate financial complexities with confidence.

These credits are designed for accounting professionals with a CPA designation.

PDCs (Professional Development Credits)

Churches rely on strong leadership to recruit, support, and develop staff, and SHRM-certified programs provide expert insights into HR policies, employment regulations, and workplace culture. Maintaining PDCs ensures church leaders remain informed about effective hiring practices, staff engagement strategies, and legal compliance. The Church Network’s SHRM-accredited education empowers ministry professionals to build healthy, thriving teams that support their church’s mission.

These credits are designed for HR professionals with a SHRM designation.

Develop Your Skills and Stay Relevant

Whether you’re maintaining your CCA credential, improving church management skills, or refining HR and financial expertise, The Church Network provides trusted continuing education that keeps you knowledgeable, compliant, and impactful.
