1.  Call the district superintendent and set up a pre-accreditation interview. [No one can be accredited for C&MA ministry unless they have completed a minimum of 30 hours of Bible].

2.  At the end of the pre-accreditation interview, the district superintendent will determine whether or not the individual is potentially eligible to serve as an official worker. If considered to be eligible, the applicant will receive a packet of materials to fill out and return to the district office.

3.  Once the district superintendent has received all of the required materials, a formal accreditation interview can be set up with the district LO&CC (License, Ordination, & Consecration Council.) Upon approval, the candidate will be ‘accredited’ for ministry and his/her resumé can be sent to the district office for distribution to churches looking for workers.

4.  Once an individual has accepted a ministry position in a local church, the district will issue a license to that person and they will be officially credentialed.

5.  As soon as a new official worker is licensed, he/she immediately begins the two-year process of ordination (male) or consecration (female).
