Introduction
The Master of Christian Education program is designed to mentor Godfearing leaders for fundamental Baptist churches and ministries of like faith in the West and throughout the world. Its purpose is to provide advanced professional preparation for the Christian school teacher, supervisor, or administrator. It also prepares the master's candidate for further academic work in post-graduate research. The Master of Christian Education is a thirty-three-hour program offered during one- and two-week modular periods during the summer months. Classes are also offered in the evenings during the regular school year. Also, courses are offered through independent study courses and a directed field experience, allowing them to graduate within a two-year or three-year time period.
The graduate program in education endeavours to equip the IBCS graduate with a degree that places Christ at the very centre of the education experience. The candidate will be exposed to essential skills related to educational administration, research, and pedagogy. Admissions Requirements An approved bachelor's degree is a prerequisite to admission to the M.C.Ed. Program. Students are expected to have backgrounds in education, administrational leadership, Bible, or Christian service. The prospective student's experience will be considered, as well as his or her formal education.
The candidate will complete three pre-tests to assess their ability levels in writing, Old Testament knowledge, and New Testament knowledge. A minimum score is required in each area.
