1.  This NAVADMIN establishes the Chief of Chaplains as program sponsor 
for the professional development of Chaplain Corps (CHC) officers and 
Religious Program Specialists (RP) in line with reference (a). The Chief of 
Chaplains conducts annual short-course training for CHC officers and RPs to 
sharpen the unique capabilities and competencies chaplains and RPs bring to 
the institution and to inspire excellence in delivering religious ministry. 
The FY-25 Professional Development Training will consist of a total of four 
days and is required for all chaplains and RPs barring operational 
commitments. This training also provides continuing education units, which 
may be required to maintain religious organization credentials.

Teams (RMTs).

following three days, will focus on building Spiritual Readiness through

and their families. This training is organized around the necessity of 
character, competence, and connection for the delivery of Religious Ministry 
in the sea services.
