CERTIFICATE IN CHRISTIAN COUNSELING / ONLINE EDUCATION

PROGRAM CHAIR: Cynthia Ticas, BA, MAC

OVERVIEW
As our world becomes more complex, more and new challenges face individuals and families, from financial to emotional. The Word of God tells us in Proverbs 11:14, Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety. This world needs Apostolic, Holy Ghost filled counselors to lead individuals, families and communities to wholeness. 
The Certificate in Christian Counseling gives an opportunity for pastors and individuals in ministry who desire to have additional training in Christian Counseling but due to busy schedules are not able to attend classes in person. This certificate program includes six classes, which are divided in two semesters and will be completely online. 
The Certificate in Christian Counseling will integrate the most current trends in Christian counseling with the study of Christian faith and practice, thereby enabling students to integrate the principles of biblically based spirituality with counseling practice for leadership within the church.
STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES
Upon completion of the Certificate, students will be able to:
  1. Demonstrate a basic knowledge of Christian Counseling
  2. Apply high ethical standards in their academic and professional life;
  3. Have a rudimentary understanding of counseling children, adolescents and adults.
