Discipleship Training

Welcome! On this page you can learn more about our classes. You can find the syllabi and assignments. You can also look at our conference forum and chat area for a sample course. You cannot, however, enter a regular class conference forum or chat area unless you are enrolled for that class.

Program Overview

This program is for growing Christians desiring a deeper theological understanding. With the convenience of learning at your computer and studying on your time schedule, you can take advantage of great professors, interaction with other students, and live monthly on-line chat.

Each course counts as 1 unit and requires 1-2 hours of study per week. Assignments include both reading and written assignments. You are free to take one or more courses at a time, noting the time requirements above. Note that these courses, while delivering an excellent level of training, are not for credit and no degree is awarded. Upon completion of the program (8 hours) students will be granted a Certificate of Approved Workman. The program should be completed within four years.
