The Doctor of Educational Ministry degree program is designed to equip Christian educators to lead in the church! It enhances the service of those actively involved in vocational or bi-vocational educational ministry by providing advanced training in the practice of biblically and theologically oriented educational ministry.


The Doctor of Educational Ministry (DEdMin) program helps Christian educators develop the biblical rationale, sociological strategy, and practical implementation of their ministry through group-based cohorts or individualized study.

Requirements

Generally, you need three years of ministry experience and a DTS MACE or equivalent degree to begin your Doctor of Educational Ministry (DEdMin).

Concentrations

The Doctor of Educational Ministry program does allow the student to select a concentration based on their own individual ministry needs and interests. In these concentrations, students have three alternative courses within the program that focus on a particular course of study within a network of likeminded ministry colleagues.
