Grants & Funding CTS recently secured a significant Lilly Endowment grant totaling around 1.186 million to support training for preachers using womanist, feminist, and queer wisdom. This indicates strong engagement with funded initiatives and potential interest in partnerships or platforms that align with their grant-backed programs or grant-writing services.

Online DMin Growth The institution launched an online Doctor of Ministry program in Fall 2023, signaling a strategic push into digital delivery and online credentials. This creates opportunities for scalable learning technology solutions, LMS enhancements, online student engagement tools, and targeted marketing to working professionals seeking flexible seminary education.

Public Ministry Focus Recent leadership hire and program development emphasize public ministry and community leadership, suggesting potential demand for applied theology curricula, leadership development platforms, ministry analytics, and community activation software tailored to faith-based organizations.

Social Justice Orientation CTS actively engages with social justice, equity, and interreligious dialogue, presenting opportunities for partnerships around content licensing, research collaborations, event platforms, and thought leadership programs that attract institutions focused on justice-oriented education and outreach.

Strategic Partnerships Active collaborations with diverse faith communities such as The Gathering and Nevertheless, She Preached indicate a openness to consortiums, joint programs, and grant-aligned ventures. This suggests potential for co-branded courses, shared certificates, and cross-institutional sales with complementary seminaries and theological centers.
