The objective of the online biblical studies program is to provide the student with the necessary tools for the study and interpretation of the Bible, as well as the foundation for ministerial work in any part of the world.
WHY STUDY ONLINE?
MODALITIES OF ONLINE CLASSES
The student can take his classes in any of the following options:
Synchronous Mode:
The courses are taken through live classes by Zoom where the student must connect to the internet and be present with his/her classmates at a specific time. The student interacts live with the teacher and classmates.
Asynchronous Mode:
Courses (subjects) are taken through classes with pre-recorded videos over a period of eight (8) weeks. There is no live interaction with teachers or classmates, so they are asynchronous classes. Assignments are submitted on a weekly basis. The student is free to complete assignments and watch videos according to his or her personal schedule, as long as the assignments are completed within the established week.
It is called modular since the courses are taken in the form of intensive 8-week modules, compressing the 16-week (semester) program to an 8-week (modular) one, without losing academic quality and maintaining the standards requested by the ABHE.
Study Plans
This program is designed so that the student can take 32 credit hours between subjects of Biblical and Theological Studies and subjects of Systematic Theology, adapting the courses to their convenience.
The student will be able to choose at their convenience the number of courses they wish to take during each eight-week module.
To graduate, the student must have a minimum GPA of 2.0 (According to the American academic scale of 4.0), in addition to completing their classes and Practical Ministry in their local church under the supervision of their pastor or leader.

The program is designed so that the student can carry out four emphases; Pastoral (men only), Christian Education, and Missions (for both). Along with the subjects, the student must complete the practical ministry supervised by the pastor or leader of the church where he or she attends.
This program is not complete in asynchronous modular mode, so the student will only be able to take the courses available in this format (they are those corresponding to the Two-Year Certificate program) and the rest of the courses needed to complete the program. must be done with the synchronous format. That is to say, in this case, the student will have a mixed modality to be able to complete all his credits.
It is advisable that the student be able to take the courses that are in the modular asynchronous modality and as they progress, they will be able to take those courses that are not yet in that modality, but will be in the future.
To graduate, the student must have a minimum GPA of 2.0 (According to the American academic scale of 4.0), as well as some internal SBRG requirements.
