However, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, the health and well-being of both our students and staff is our highest priority. With this in mind, a decision has been made to hold a shorter institute for the Spring 2021 semester with just the Leadership Development modules. For a list of dates for this unique semester, see our “Academics > Schedule” page. Schedule The Children’s Ministries Institute (CMI) provides specialized, practical training in children’s ministries not found in Bible colleges or Christian universities. If you have a heart for reaching children for Christ and discipling them, if you desire to train others in this ministry or if you are seeking career opportunities in this field, CMI is just what you are looking for. Courses are offered related to the following areas: Children’s Ministries Gain insights for understanding, evangelizing and discipling children through a variety of methods and programs. Teacher Training Pass on your training and passion for children by systematically discipling and equipping teachers to minister effectively to children. Leadership Development Called to ministry? Cultivate the qualities necessary to administrate a children’s ministry and to give godly leadership. One of the unique features of the Children’s Ministries Institute ’s residential program is the structure of its curriculum. CMI operates a 12-week modular program consisting of one- and two-week courses. Each module stands alone; however, some modules have prerequisites for entrance. Among the benefits of this structure is that it enables many people to attend CMI for short term study and thereby complete their training in a convenient manner over a period of time. However, students are encouraged to enroll in the full 12-week diploma program, when possible. Numerous accredited colleges offer credit for this training. As well, Children’s Ministries Institute is a recognized provider of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) by the Association of Christian Schools International. CMI online training resources are designed to meet the busy lifestyles of those who minister to children. Online resources include demonstrations, seminars, and courses that provide biblical, practical instruction on a variety of topics. Sign in or Sign up to access the online resources.
