Diplomas Offered

Introduction

Integrity and honesty are high values. We do offer diplomas and certificates, not degrees. We recognize that when the government released religious education to the police itself, many different directions are taken. There are now dozens of self-declared Christian accrediting organizations.  Though some have value, do not assume that an institution which calls itself “accredited” is meaningful. Check out reviews of the accrediting organization. Review the faculty. What is their ministry experience? What earned (versus honorary) degrees to they hold? From accredited institutions? What was the reputation, accreditation and quality of the schools they attended?

We have discovered many cases professors have their primary  degrees  from the institution in which they are leading and or teaching. This certainly raises the question of reliability. We do look forward to receiving accreditation in the future, you can be sure it will be from an impeccable institution.

We recognize that achieving goals is helpful. Please note our curriculum is based on different Certificates and Diplomas, leading to a “Diploma in Ministry.” We believe our curriculum enables us to achieve our mission, “To provide a non-campus-based Bible and ministry education to encourage Christian growth and individuals preparing for or currently serving in Christian ministry.” We recommend you consult with your mentor or supervisor in choosing courses. We believe that completing the full requirements for the Ministry Diploma, the “Boot Camp” which includes an overseas trip, and an approved Internship will provide a strong foundation for Christian workers at all levels including vocational ministry.

There is opportunity on a limited basis for transfer credit and life credit. For example, if you have taught a class that lines up with one of our courses. With proper documentation it is possible you may receive credit for it. The same is true if you have significant ministry experience which lines up with one of our courses.  Please contact the administration for details and an application.

Please note our curriculum is heavily Bible focused. We have become concerned at the high illiteracy among Christians. These survey courses are a place to start introducing the students  to every book in the Bible.

Hybrid Courses are taught in the order of teacher availability and production of videos, any order listed above. Other options are available Delivery Options.
