Training, yes---seminary, no. Nothing whatsoever said there training being done at a seminary. I suspect the case is more likely that the bishop at the individual diocese sets up (or has in existence) a team who oversees the process. In fact I specifically think that such training would best NOT be done in a seminary--which is used to handling young, relatively "unformed" students, not seasoned adults.
Dear Wonder Warthog,
Well then, I suppose I was using the phrase "seminary training" a bit loosely. By it, I meant training in the sort of material that would ordinarily be covered in a seminary. Whether or not any of this training takes place in actual seminaries isn't something that I know, although I wouldn't preclude it.
But that wasn't what I was trying to get across.
I initially responded to what you posted here:
"I'm pretty sure they do, but I'm also pretty sure it is a 'formality' kind of ceremony (certainly validly sacramental, but not like having to go thru seminary again), since the academic requirements and training for the priesthood in both Anglicanism and Catholicism are so similar."
In that a normal seminary program for Catholic priests is usually four years in length, and the process for non-Catholic clergy can include up to two years of training, there is a substantial academic, training requirement. That's much more than the "formality" about which you spoke.
