About the Courses

Four course sequence:  Each course is written to stand alone, however when taken in sequence, students will learn and implement the strategic best practices for a new media process for ministry.

Practical coursework:  Assignments will provide hands-on experience with task-specific exercises linked to the student’s ministry context and region.

Accessible for international students:  All courses have ESL-friendly content,  with the goal of having multiple languages in the future.

Mentors and Coaches:  Student progress will be monitored by trusted mentors and coaches who can provide valuable feedback within two working days and advice for course projects.
