About

The College of Public Preceptors is made up of senior and experienced Order members from around the world who are actively involved in the training of men and women for ordination. They make the final decision about people's readiness for ordination and perform the public ordination ceremonies. They bring to the College a broad range of backgrounds, life experience and knowledge. Some have lived and worked within Triratna institutions all their adult lives, some have raised families and some have worked in various professions. Not all senior and experienced Order members are College members. Those who are have chosen to serve the Order and community in this particular way, overseeing and supporting ordination training.

The College’s primary responsibility is in the ordination of men and women within the Triratna Order.

It currently has 44 members. While the majority live in the UK, others live in India, Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Germany and the USA.
