Orientation will be Monday, September 21st at 6 p.m.
We will meet at Nehemiah’s Temple, 25130 Lorraine, Warren, Michigan

CLASSES EXPECTED TO START LATE OCTOBER, 2015

Our Classroom and Online Training and Certification Program (held for Michigan students) is a course for all — teachers and serious students — who have an interest in furthering their knowledge of the Bible and related biblical issues. This quality classroom/online training has a $48 registration fee for the entire standard course. The total tuition (including registration fee and six books) is $150. You may get started with $65, which will include your registration fee, and first book to take to the classroom.

Details of Our Biblical Training

We will be studying in a classroom environment but the assignments will be done online. (During orientation, instructions will be given on how to take our “one-click” user friendly online quizzes.) Exceptions can be made to take written quizzes, as well.

The orientation will take place Monday, but the training will be every Monday from 6:30 PM until 8:45 PM. Excellent anointed and seasoned instructors will inform and train students in the classroom setting.  This will be a great opportunity for serious students to learn more about the Bible and biblical related issues. The duration of the course will last approximately 9 months. You do not need to attend all classes, but assignments are due each week prior to the next session. If you cannot make some sessions, you may do assignments online and submit them to be graded. Our studies will cover six books to complete the Biblical training. You will be able to use “open book” during the online quizzing. Quizzing for two chapters is required per week.

Offer an Ongoing Ministers’ Development Class


“We have a well established class for ministers on Sunday mornings. One minister each week will teach the lesson from our standard curriculum, while honing their teaching skills. Just before the sessions end, the minister’s alliance leader will take a few minutes to assign upcoming lessons, make announcements, or share other information related to ministers.”

Specialized classes can be created to help develop ministers at your assembly. These classes can be held on Sunday mornings, along with your regularly scheduled Sunday classes.

Here’s how it’s done:

1) Call a meeting with all ministers.
2) Establish a place during Sunday school.
3) Appoint your ministers’ alliance chairperson or someone to faithfully look over the training.
4) Schedule and appoint your teachers months in advance to teach from your Sunday school literature.
5) Have a seasoned instructor to occasionally assist teachers in areas of development.

The steps above are a good way of developing and establishing ministers who feel called and led by God in the teaching ministry.
