The Theological Institute of the Scottish Episcopal Church (TISEC) has oversight of ministerial formation, training and development within the Scottish Episcopal Church, and the Methodist Church in Scotland.
Through its Initial Ministerial Education (IME) programmes it prepares men and women for accredited lay and ordained ministries; and through its Continuing Ministerial Development (CMD) programmes it seeks to offer ongoing training and support for those engaged in public ministry.
TISEC consists of both a dispersed and a central body. Dispersed TISEC is constituted by diocesan co-ordinators and advisors. Dispersed TISEC is responsible for part of the delivery of IME programmes and the delivery of all CMD programmes.
TISEC's work is overseen by the Ministry Development Committee. This committee reports through its convenor to the provincial Board for Mission and Ministry.
