Classes are conducted once a month, eight times a year, in a two semester format (Fall and Spring). Three courses are
offered each month of the semester, one for each corresponding credential level (certified, license, ordained).
Students participate in five hours of classroom instruction on Saturday (9:00 am—3:00 pm).
Prior to class, each student is required to read through the course text book and complete the study guide.
A minimum 10 hours of preparatory work is necessary. With classroom time, students will have invested 15 hours
or more per course.
Classroom instruction provides an overview of the material, practical applications, and opportunity for questions
and discussions. The classroom session ends with a final exam.
Courses are taught by District officers and Directors, Presbyters, and seasoned pastors with expertise and experience
in the field of study. Instructors use personal experience and a variety of teaching methods. Occasionally,
Bible college professors will serve as guest lecturers.
