The Asociación para la Educación Teológica Hispana (AETH) exists to stimulate dialogue and collaboration among theological educators, administrators of institutions for ministerial formation, and Christian ministerial students in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.
AETH was founded as a result of a meeting of Hispanic theological educators that took place in August of 1991. AETH has since experienced a dramatic growth. Its current membership includes over 1200 individuals and 100 affiliated institutions.
AETH has regional chapters in Puerto Rico and in several regions of the United States. Regional chapters sponsor workshops, stimulate ministerial development of its members and encourage the exchange of educational resources.
AETH publishes books and educational materials related to its objectives. Its bulletin “Encuentro” informs its membership regarding Hispanic theological education.
AETH encourages the creation and development of programs and projects aimed at strengthening and equipping people of God for Hispanics.
