Certificate in Christian Leadership
The Certificate in Christian Leadership will prepare leaders to live out the Irreducible Core (IC) of the Christian life in an integrated fashion through one’s life, vocation and ministry.
Students enrolled in the certificate program take only one course at a time. The courses must be taken in the sequence as listed. The student should expect that each course will take about ten weeks (or earlier depending on personal pace) and about 100 hours to complete. Each course is offered as a self-paced study program; students can anticipate completing each certificate in approximately 18-24 months.
Access the Student Handbook here for all Trivium Institute information.
To successfully complete the program students must:
1. Complete 10 Courses (listed below) including the Local Service Project (TP #1)
2. Create an Online Portfolio to Validate Competencies
