Pathways is the way the Alliance of Reformed Churches credentials its pastors and promotes lifelong learning for disciples. Pathways isn't a school. Rather, it is a framework of competencies that describe maturity and give pathways to achieve those competencies. Participants move toward ordination by demonstrating competencies, either by doing formal coursework or by achieving competencies in context with the help of a Guide Team.
