Our Purpose
Mat 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Efs 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ: 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.
Our Aim
Our aim is to help our students in the following ways:
- Develop a strong and deep relationship with the Lord
- Provide an in-depth understanding of the Word of God
- Make them firm and stable in their walk with the Lord as revealed by the Word through the ministry of the Holy Spirit
- Prepare them for ministry, leadership, and servant-hood in the body of Christ
- Impart a correct and clear understanding of the Word of God.
- Train and equip future leaders by means of the best training methods
LEGAL STATUS AND ACCREDITATION
Our curriculum is accredited by Theological Accreditation International and provides quality assurance in higher education.
HEM Bible College curriculum is a non-governmental accreditation, extended exclusively to private, Christian institutions upon inspection and approval of their programs, operations, and integrity and is one of the largest religious accreditation agencies world-wide.
The purpose of accreditation is to:
- certify that an institution has met the established standards of excellence
- assist prospective students in identifying reputable institutions, which offer degree programs that will meet their needs and goals
- allow institutions to evaluate the acceptability of transfer credits into their own curricula programs
Accreditation is a private, voluntary, non-governmental peer-review process that reviews the educational quality of an institution or program. Accreditation is the primary means of assuring educational quality. Accreditation status confirms that an institution has voluntarily undergone a comprehensive self-study and peer examination that demonstrates the institution meets standards of accreditation. To receive accreditation, the institution must clearly demonstrate that it has established educational goals, offers formal, organized learning experiences and services that enable students to meet these stated goals and that students and graduates have benefited from the learning experiences provided. Furthermore, accreditation assures that an institution operates on a sound financial basis, has approved programs of study, qualified instructors, adequate facilities and equipment and engages in continual improvement through self-evaluation and planning and promotes its programs truthfully.
A degree is only valid if it is properly granted by an entity that has the legal authority to do so and degree-granting authorization cannot be conferred by an accrediting body. Accreditation agencies are themselves private membership associations and relied upon by many governmental entities to perform certain qualitative and evaluative functions. However, they do not themselves have the authority to issue degrees nor have the power to authorize the existence of a college or a degree program.
Government-recognized accreditation is not necessary for the religious vocations in which we are equipping our students and people working in ministry positions do not need a government- accredited degree.
Disclaimer Statement
Our courses meet the requirements established by many private, independent, and professional associations. Various regionally or nationally accredited Christian Universities, colleges and seminaries may accept transfer students, credits and degrees from the curriculum used by HEM Bible College.
Transferability of credits earned through HEM Bible College and transferred to another institution is at the discretion of the receiving institution.
All our Certificates, Diplomas and Degrees are issued from USA where the managing institution is registered. All students are considered as online students and are registered as such.
We do not prepare our students for secular work or denominational service. We will seek to provide a sound theological standing from which our students may fulfil their divine purpose and calling. We are not responsible for any problems students may have with the higher education authorities in their own denominations.
LIFE EXPERIENCE
All degrees at HEM Bible College are earned degrees. This is achieved by mandatory coursework that must be completed.
Transcripts do not always reflect real life experience. HEM Bible College recognizes life experience which may have been gained through years of work which is ministry related.
Many people have served in ministry positions and have gained a lot of knowledge and experience in their fields, but do not have any formal certificate, diploma, or degree. Life experience credits can give some of the recognition needed for this service in the work of the Lord.
This acceptance of life credits helps a potential student to accelerate their learning college experience and enable them to earn a fully accredited ministry related degree. Applicants must have had more than five years in a recognized position in ministry.
No diplomas or degrees can be awarded based purely upon life-experience. Life experience credit cannot be given for an entire degree but is limited to a maximum of 30 credit hours.
Life experience which could include such things as books authored, missions trips, classes taught, outreach ministries, ministries within a church, etc., must be documented along with the years they occurred and submitted for evaluation.
CREDIT TRANSFERS
HEM Bible College, through our main institution can transfer all credits from accredited institutions such as colleges, seminaries, Christian universities, etc. Courses transferred must be equivalent in content and requirements to courses in HEM Bible College catalogue.
The credits must be reported on an official transcript. No more than 60 credit hours (including life credits) may be transferred.
STUDY ONLINE
No student has to wait for a full year or semester to start with studies. Different people study at different paces which means a student can now determine and maintain his or her own pace.
Students can register any time of the year as and when it suits the student best in terms of own circumstances, whether it be available funds, job requirements or any other circumstances.
Our online learning programs serve students who:
- cannot attend a campus.
- are unable to attend a Church-based Bible college in their city
- are pursuing a degree, but need to complete some courses through distance delivery
Online education brings the college with all its resources right into your home which you can access at any time of your choosing.
We have listed a number of advantages of online learning:
• Flexibility – You can access your course materials at any time of the day and night and from anywhere in the country, as long as you have internet access and a computer or similar device that has internet accessibility. We will post your books to you.
• Convenience – Campus classes are rigid whereas online study can be scheduled around work and family as long as you are disciplined and put in the necessary hours of work required for the online classes.
• Access to instructors – you can email our College instructor at any time with any question and have your questions answered promptly. You are the only person competing for the instructor’s attention.
• Cost saving – Studying online will save you time and money by eliminating the need to travel to and from campus. The campus is right where you happen to be at any time.
• Access to the world – Every quality resource that you may need to help you complete your classes is available on the internet. The internet can take you to far-flung places across the globe and connect you with unique pieces of information that may not be accessible in the traditional on-campus environment.
Students can start studying at any time during the year. They can also graduate as soon as they have completed their study program. HEM Bible College will hold a graduation ceremony each year in the Eastern Cape.
