Offer and Background Checks for Developmental Ministers

Part of A Guide to Transitional Ministry

When you make an offer to a minister, it is contingent on a successful background check as well as coming to agreement on the specific compensation (salary+housing) for the offer being made.

Background Checks

Completing a successful background check of the minister is one of the first priorities after extending an offer. See Background Checks for a current list of companies the UUA has worked with.

Plan to compensate your developmental minister above the midpoint of the salary range. Highly-skilled interims expect to be compensated accordingly, well-above the midpoint.
