Kairos Continuing Education
Continuing education in the ELCA is intended to equip those in
leadership roles so that the whole body of Christ may better carry
out God’s mission.
The ELCA expects a minimum of 50 contact hours annually in
continuing education. A contact hour is defined as a typical
50-minute classroom instruction session or the equivalent.
Clergy and rostered lay leaders are to work with their staff support
committee annually in planning, reviewing and recording their
continuing education activities and hours. These continuing
education endeavors are also to be reported annually to the
synodical bishop.
