Each award is assessed independently from admission.

Career preparation is not a placement service, but a reflection of churches, free churches, mission organisations, education, counselling, diaconia, social services, non-profits and theological networks in Hesse and internationally. Students are able to build their employability through congregational placements, preaching and communication, supervised ministry, social or mission projects, language work, research seminars and practice-linked theses. Alumni and professional networks can provide mentoring, industry knowledge and contacts, but it is the individual student who must make applications and career decisions. It is particularly relevant for those who look for a close-learning theological environment combining academic depth, Christian formation, mentoring, and practical preparation for the service in church and community. The institution’s suitability for an applicant depends on the applicant’s prior education, evidence of language, study format, and financing that match the current program conditions.
