Program overview
Begin with a two-week introduction seminar covering tools, policies, and study rhythms. Courses run 8 or 16 weeks with shared checkpoints; readings and assignments are self-paced between those checkpoints.
After completing the Biblical Formation core, you remain connected to peers while awaiting the launch of associate-level pathways and the accompanying research seminar.
