Assemblies of God Ministerial Credentials

Obtaining credentials with the Assemblies of God requires a combination of course work and practical experience. Specifically, obtaining credentials requires a process of application, and exam, and an interview. Applications are made through each district office, but the minister is recognized as a credentialed minister with the The General Council of the Assemblies of God as a whole as well as a minister within our Network.

Anyone interested in obtaining credentials or learning more about credentialing should review the handbook below.
