The Georgia School of Preaching & Biblical Studies offers two primary paths of study and achievement. The Biblical Studies Certificate and the Preaching Certificate

Both certificates require thirty six (36) hours of academic credit to be earned. The Biblical Studies Certificate path of study allows the student to choose any course in our curriculum in satisfying the required thirty six hours of study. The more focused Preaching Certificate path requires students to take at least sixteen (16) of the required thirty-six (36) hours from a core group of preaching/ministry related courses. These courses can be viewed via the curriculum link.

All courses are structured and assessed the appropriate number of credit hours by the faculty and staff of GSOP. Courses offer either one or two (1-2) hours of academic credit depending on the nature of the course and the amount of material to be covered. All courses are thirteen (13) weeks in duration, with the exception of selected satellite courses taught in a short-course format (usually involving four Saturdays of class time and testing).

Courses may be taken for credit or audit. In order to earn credit hours for GSOP courses, academic requirements set by the individual instructor must be fulfilled. These routinely involve testing, class project(s), attendance requirements, and other assessments determined by the course instructor. Those choosing to audit courses are not obliged to fulfill these academic requirements.

Academic requirements for each course are listed in the Curriculum section. Specific questions should be directed to the course instructor.
