Online Chaplain Training Oppotunities

I am working on a blog article for our site covering online training opportunities for chaplains. My question to you is what topics do you want to see in such training ? Scripture knowledge ? Chaplain related skills ? Non-profit management ? Police, fire, EMS skills ? How about Homeland Security ?

I already have some sources in mind, but I would like to hear from you what you need not go on what I think you need. Your input will not only help shape this article, but other content I develop for this site.

Yours in Christ,
Chaplain Crutchfield

All the things you have suggested are good. I personally am not as keen on my Scriptures as I would like to be. I also have little management experience. I did locate a solid training course at http://www.emergencychaplains.org that I am taking now. It will give me 8 certificates in various chaplaincy issues.

emergencychaplains.org is Chaplain Robby Jernigan's site. I think you will find that the courses he and his wife have develop give you a good grounding in all the basics. I plan on taking every course they come out with !
