The National School Chaplain Association believes that school chaplains can lead public education to a brighter future, and they have a new leadership-focused training program to help chaplains do their best work.
If you want to bring hope and light back to public education, you should consider a career as a school chaplain through the National School Chaplain Association.
The National School Chaplain Association is the leading institution in the United States for chaplain training, employment and advocacy. As the US’ biggest name in chaplains, the National School Chaplain Association constantly reflects on how school chaplaincy can improve and how aspiring school chaplains like yourself can do more to help students and communities in need. That’s why they have updated their professional chaplain training to address the lack of compassionate leadership they see in schools today.

In an education culture that is increasingly driven by standardized tests and metrics, and in which teaching staff is increasingly burnt out—and typically leaving the profession before they can rise to leadership roles—the National School Chaplain Association has seen that leadership in public education is in crisis. As a recent article on Forbes magazine revealed, 63% of school leaders today have considered quitting the profession because of stress, pointing to the, as they termed it, “high-stress, no-win stakes of leading education today”.
Given their close relationships with schools across the country, the National School Chaplain Association has seen firsthand the effects of this leadership crisis, and they believe that harried, under-pressure and time-poor school leaders have little time to think of one of the most essential values in education: compassion.
The National School Chaplain Association believes, therefore, that new school chaplains can and must fill that gap.
