Three Month evaluations. The
ELCA requires interns and supervising pastors to complete a 3-month evaluation of the internship. Lay committees are not involved in this
process. The 3-month form is different from the mid-point and final evaluation form.
Mid-point and Final
evaluations. The Mid-point and Final evaluation forms ask the same
questions at two different points during the internship. This allows
interns, supervisors, and lay committees to mark the intern's progress and
growth.
Supervisors and committee chairs will be able to fill out the forms online
and print copies for themselves from their browser windows. Interns will
be able to respond to the evaluations online.
Lay intern committees also participate in the evaluation process. It is
the responsibility of the committee chair to submit the online evaluation
form on behalf of the committee, twice a year. However, the entire
committee is expected to participate in the evaluation process by giving
the chair their opinions on the evaluation questions.
Review the evaluation questions.
Nine Month evaluations are optional. The ELCA Vocation and
Education Unit no longer requires that students and their supervisors
complete the Nine Month evaluation. However, students should check with
their individual candidacy committees, as they may still desire that it be
completed. Interns and supervisors may wish to take advantage of the opportunity to evaluate the internship at
the nine month point. (The Nine Month forms can be found on the ELCA website.)
Complete the forms online! There is no need to mail in the entire form! Interns will be responsible for printing signature pages, gathering all
required signatures, and mailing these to the Contextual Learning office.
Questions? If you have any questions or problems using this new process, please
contact the Contextual Learning office via email,
or call 651-641-3474 or 651-641-3266.
