Welcome to
The West Coast Collaborative
Episcopal School for Ministry

The West Coast Collaborative Episcopal School for Ministry is a combined ministry of the Dioceses of Northern California, El Camino Real, and San Diego. It provides innovative lay and diaconal formation programs based in the curriculum of the Iona Collaborative. The School currently offers formation for Lay Preachers and those being prepared for ordination to the Vocational Diaconate. Both programs have been well received. Over time, the WCC will continue to expand its offerings in support of lay and ordained ministries.
