This course is formatted for self-paced study. There are two distinct levels to this course:<\/p>\n<p><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\">Level 1 <\/b>is a basic course for new members, confirmation classes, and for people looking to have a basic understanding of Congregationalism.<\/p>\n<p><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\">Level 2<\/b> is an advanced course for those looking to serve their church in a leadership role<\/p>\n<p>The Congregational History and Polity Course is especially important for a minister who is now serving an NACCC church but has come to your church from a tradition other than Congregational. Many churches will require that their new pastor build their experience and knowledge in Congregationalism either by attending a seminar or working through this course, by writing this requirement directly into their terms of call.<\/p>\n<p>For more details visit our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/education-programs\/ccl\/history-polity-course\/\">History and Polity course page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4788,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[51,85],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1965","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-clergy-resources","category-featured-clergy-resource"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1965","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1965"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1965\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6449,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1965\/revisions\/6449"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4788"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1965"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1965"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccc.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1965"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
