    About the Navy Chaplain Corps

    The Navy Chaplain Corps is comprised of over 800 chaplains from more than 100 different faith groups, including Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, and many others. Each chaplain is also a Navy officer, holding an important leadership role.

    Chaplains provide a range of services, including:

    • Providing religious ministry and support to those of their own faith
    • Facilitating the religious requirements of those from all faiths
    • Caring for all servicemembers and their families, including those who subscribe to no specific faith
    • Advising the command in ensuring the free exercise of religion

    Responsibilities

    As a Navy chaplain, your job encompasses a broad range of duties. You will support fellow servicemembers during both joyful and difficult moments. Your responsibilities may include:

    • Conducting worship services in various settings
    • Performing religious rites and ceremonies such as weddings, funeral services, and baptisms
    • Counseling individuals seeking guidance
    • Overseeing religious education programs, such as Sunday school and youth groups
    • Visiting and providing spiritual guidance and care to hospitalized personnel and/or their family members
    • Training lay leaders who conduct religious education programs
    • Promoting attendance at religious services, retreats, and conferences
    • Advising leaders at all levels regarding morale, ethics, and spiritual well-being

    Work Environment

    Navy chaplains immerse themselves in the daily lives of servicemembers, offering guidance and insight whenever needed. You could provide support while on land or at sea, presiding over religious ceremonies on a base, or conducting services from the flight deck of an aircraft carrier.

    Training and Advancement

    Pursuing a chaplain position requires attending Officer Development School (ODS) in Newport, RI. Upon completion, you attend a seven-week course at the Naval Chaplaincy School and Center, also in Newport, RI.

    Promotion opportunities are regularly available but competitive and based on performance. Specialized training received and work experience gained can lead to valuable credentialing and occupational opportunities in related fields such as family counseling and behavioral therapy.

    Education Opportunities

    Navy chaplains typically continue their education throughout their careers. Opportunities for continuing education are available through the Advanced Education Program while being paid full-time as a Navy officer. Beyond professional credentials and certifications, Navy chaplains can advance their education by:

    • Pursuing opportunities at institutions such as the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS)
    • Completing Joint Professional Military Education (JPME) at one of the various service colleges

    Qualifications and Requirements

    To serve as a Navy chaplain and officer, you must:

    • Hold a bachelor's degree from a qualified four-year undergraduate educational institution
    • Have a graduate degree in theological or related studies from an accredited educational institution
    • Have two years of full-time religious leadership experience compatible with the duties of a Religious Ministry Professional (RMP) in their respective Religious Organizations (RO)
    • Be able to obtain an Ecclesiastical Endorsement from a religious faith organization registered with the Department of Defense
