We are excited about launching this program and invite you to be part of our inaugural Fall 2004 semester.
Upon receipt of the appropriate forms and fees, the course program can begin at any time. It includes self-study, utilizing multimedia materials published by Koinonia House (as well as Internet and library resources), and the completion of assigned workbooks, book reviews and final examination.
Upon satisfactory completion of each course, a Certificate of Completion will be issued to the student and Transcript Credit will be sent to Louisiana Baptist University.
