The General Board of Higher Education and Ministry (GBHEM) seeks to bring people together to discern, learn, and lead for the church and the academy. As a worldwide agency, we work with key partners, churches, and institutions to offer connectional and collaborative programs to support higher education and ministry around the world.
Annual conferences are strongly encouraged to ratify the constitutional amendment to Paragraph 35 (Ballot #4) because it standardizes and clarifies who is eligible to vote for clergy delegates to General Conference.
GBHEM scholarships offer financial aid to United Methodist students pursuing undergraduate and graduate degrees. Scholarship applications are now closed. The deadline to apply was April 7, and we’re no longer accepting submissions. Thank you to everyone who applied!
This online program is for pastors, ministry candidates, and lay persons interested in developing their pastoral care skills in their own ministry context. Applications are currently being accepted for the fall and winter units.
The educational institutions affiliated with The United Methodist Church are among the finest in the world and contribute to the greater good of humanity. The vast expanse of Methodism’s educational footprint cannot be overstated, the 109 United Methodist-affiliated educational institutions have made an immeasurable impact in the world.
GBHEM is committed to supporting effective Christian leadership and discernment through spiritual formation.
GBHEM is responsible for The Methodist Global Education Fund for Leadership Development (MGEFLD) — which includes the international Grants and Scholarships Program (GRASP) — and the Central Conference Theological Education Fund (CCTEF). The agency also has ten regional hubs for Leadership, Education, and Development (LEAD Hubs) on five continents.
Students who attend a United Methodist college or university find more than just a world-class education. They find a community that nurtures their spirit, as well as their mind.
