Chaplaincy Training & Qualification for College Students to Earn Credits Launch
Feb 15, 2023
The National School Chaplain Association (NSCA) has launched a legal and accredited chaplaincy training program for college students.
Norman, United States - February 15, 2023 /PressCable/ —
The recently launched program is open to college students who want to earn a teacher’s salary while in college or university. Depending on their training level, they get up to one year of college credits upon completion of the course.

The NSCA’s new program helps college students get a head start in their careers while they are still in university. It integrates with the student’s bachelor’s or associate’s degree, so the student does not need to take a gap year or fall behind on their studies. The chaplaincy program is offered in collaboration with Oklahoma Christian University and with teachers who specialize in chaplaincy, ministry, and bible studies.
The training program has three levels, depending on the experience level that the applicant has. Level One training is for chaplains, pastors, or ministers who already have licenses from other legally recognized agencies. This level requires very little training and is focused only on placement.
Level Two and Three are recommended for college students. For those who have teaching experience or have previously worked for youth groups, Level Two’s 48-hour training program teaches the basics of chaplaincy and how to provide spiritual and moral care to children and teenagers. On average, classes are eight hours per week, and the entire program runs for six weeks. Students will get one college credit or three CEU credits when they complete the course.
Level Three is designed for students with no experience teaching or working with youth groups. It is an intensive one-year program that includes bible studies, crisis management, ministry, and counseling. Students will get a year’s worth of college credit, which can be counted towards whatever degree they are working on, whether bachelor’s or associate’s.

With chaplains in more than 20 countries and serving more than 20,000 schools and millions of students, the NSCA’s chaplaincy program has been proven effective in minimizing issues like fighting, disrespect for authority, poor academic performance, violence against students, teachers, and staff, drugs and other vices, and teen pregnancy. Chaplaincy has given students a place where they can vent out their frustrations and seek solace.

Butcher Boy earns Bib Gourmand distinction in 2027 Michelin Guide
MANILA, Philippines — Butcher Boy has earned a Bib Gourmand distinction in the 2027 Michelin Guide Philippines, moving up from its Michelin-Selected status in the 2026 edition and joining a select group of restaurants recognized for serving quality food at accessible prices. The recognition was announced during the official awarding ceremony at the Manila Marriott Hotel on Thursday, Oct. 29, attended by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Butcher Boy was among only two restaurants promoted from the Michelin-Selected category to Bib Gourmand this year. The distinction recognizes establishments that offer good-quality food at reasonable prices. Butcher Boy Philippines CEO Dino Chua received the award, marking another milestone for the restaurant, which has continued to establish its presence in the local dining scene. The recognition follows the restaurant's opening of its new and expanded location at Alabang West Parade along Daang Hari Road in Muntinlupa City in 2026. Led by Chua, the move marked a new chapter for the brand, allowing it to reach more diners in southern Metro Manila while maintaining its signature contemporary Asian-fusion cuisine. Originally founded by Michelin-starred chef Andrew Walsh of Singapore's acclaimed Cure, Butcher Boy built its following at its former Makati location before relocating to Alabang to accommodate a bigger dining space and connect with a wider community. Its culinary approach combines Southeast Asian flavors with Western cooking techniques, offering dishes such as its signature chicken laksa dumplings, fried chicken bao, Asian tacos, pork adobo and a variety of steaks, alongside carefully crafted cocktails. The chicken laksa dumplings were among the dishes highlighted by Michelin inspectors. During the restaurant's grand opening, Marketing Head Aubrey S. Mojica described its concept as “where east meets west,” emphasizing that while the menu had been expanded, the restaurant remained committed to preserving the quality, atmosphere and dining experience that patrons had come to expect. Mojica also underscored the importance of customer service, saying the restaurant's identity goes beyond its food to include the experience it provides to diners. With its latest Michelin recognition, Butcher Boy strengthens its position in the Philippine dining scene, bringing its combination of Asian-fusion flavors, steaks and accessible dining to the Alabang community. Butcher Boy is located at Alabang West Parade, Daang Hari Road, Muntinlupa City. For reservations, call 0939-868-0531.
