Coming soon: a new online community for ATS stakeholders
We are pleased to announce the launch of a new online community for ATS stakeholders that will provide opportunities for networking, discussion of crucial issues, and sharing of insights through multiple communities of engagement. Whatever role you play at a member school or a related organization, you will be able to connect with your peers to share wisdom and resources in real time. Watch for an invitation this fall and join the conversations!
 
Final issue of Theological Education journal released
Publication of the ATS journal, Theological Education, has ceased with issue 52:2. There is a growing consensus that the membership would be better served by online, open-access occasional papers rather than a printed, semi-annual subscription journal. ATS remains committed to broadening access to the research and scholarship about theological education generated by our membership and staff. Under this new arrangement, publications can be issued digitally as content is produced and thereby be immediately available to all.
