Cherry Hill Seminary grew out of education efforts in the 1990s Pagan community and became the first Pagan seminary, structured for working adults studying at a distance. It has since built degree programs (Master of Divinity, Master of Pagan Studies), certificates in Community Ministry, Spiritual Direction, and Writing as a Spiritual Practice, and a catalogue of short Insights courses, taught by a practitioner-scholar faculty entirely online.
