"How do I magically find time for learning?"Christian online courses

The great thing about eLearning is that you can learn from anywhere, at anytime. In a few short weeks--PRESTO!--you can complete your tracks.

Traditional classroom learning doesn't always work for adults because life is going on all the time. By the blessings of God, you have responsibilities and priorities that also need your attention. Young college students often have one major priority: Get to class on time!

Adults have several major priorities including:Christian online courses

  • Get to work on time
  • Pick the kids up on time
  • Pay bills on time

As you know, TIME is always in limited supply as an adult.

How is learning as an adult different?

Life obligations, changing priories, and goals means that adults require different types of programs than traditional christian online coursesclassroom settings.

According to Knowles, Holston, & Swanson, in the book The Adult Learner: The Definitive Classic in Adult Education and Human Resource Development there is a set of guiding principles that relates directly to the needs of the adult learners:

  1. Adults need to know why they need to learn something before learning it.
  2. The self-concept of adults is heavily dependent upon a move toward self- direction.
  3. Prior experiences of the learner provide a rich resource for learning.
  4. Adults typically become ready to learn when they experience a need to cope with
    a life situation or perform a task.
  5. Adults’ orientation to learning is life-centered; education is a process of
    developing increased competency levels to achieve their full potential.
  6. The motivation for adult learners is internal rather than external.

Do any of these sound like you?

The curriculum for our Christian online courses is developed from the above 6 principles and from a perspective that works with your life right now.

Who can benefit from our online classes?

Our online courses are 5 weeks long. Each course is broken down into one-week units that include a foundational devotion for the week, discussion questions, assignments (based on authentic assessment methods), readings, and micro-lectures and presentations. Due to the accelerated nature of the courses that we design, objectives and outcomes are developed with higher-level critical thinking in place.

These courses are great for:

  • Adults who have graduated from high school (this is not a GED program)
  • Church Staff members seeking to improve their leadership and communication skills
    • Pastors
    • Vicars
    • Youth Leaders
