Online Continuing Education

Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
2 Timothy 2:15

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Online Continuing Education program is intended to support and equip UBF leaders, including chapter directors and local UBF ministries. It is a concise biblical program with an emphasis on UBF's mission, vision, and core values. It is tuition-free and open to all UBF leaders/members. Courses are conducted online in a communal learning environment, where students and facilitators often interact throughout the course. Our vision is to develop leaders with sound biblical/theological foundation, leadership strength, and Christlike character.

CURRICULUM
Each course is usually 12 weeks long. Coursework includes reading books/lecture notes, attending online meetings, taking quizzes, writing short essays, and interacting online with other students and instructors through discussion forums. Online Continuing Education courses will be offered two terms a year. Each term will have two or three courses at a time.

COURSE PLATFORM
Courses are offered through video conference platforms and the online course platform https://ubfinstitute.org.

QUALIFICATIONS:
This program is open to any UBF Bible teachers and ministry leaders. Those who don’t participate in the UBF church ministry require special permission to participate.

COURSE FEE
At present, our program is offered free of charge. However, we welcome donations and free offerings to continue developing high-quality courses that are relevant and effective for UBF ministry leaders.
Upon completion of the courses, the HQ committee will issue a certificate of completion for the program. This is a work in progress.
