 ABOUT
MASTER'S
MASTER'S IS AN INDEPENDENT NON-CAMPUS BASED DIVINITY SCHOOL
As an independent Divinity School, we serve both ministerial
candidates and those already serving in ministry from a wide range
of churches, denominations and connections;
offering a practical non-campus
alternative
to a traditional and more collegiate campus-based school.
Master's provides both online courses and short intensive group
learning seminars, making it possible to earn a Divinity School
degree without being required to uproot your family in order to
complete your education. We are a Divinity School for working
adults; people seeking to train for ministry; people seeking to gain
additional training and skills for a more effective ministry, and
seasoned veterans of Christian ministry who have a desire to
continue or expand their ministry education in a direct and
practical manner.
OUR
HISTORY
Master's was founded in 1999 by the leadership team of
Christian
Education Enterprises (CEE, Inc.). CEE, Inc. has been
providing learning programs to theological education institutions
since 1979. The Master's Touch Self-study Library was founded
in 1996 as a totally Internet
 delivered
learning center providing free theological distance education
courses to students around the world. Master's Divinity School
and Master's Graduate School of Divinity were founded in 1999 as a
result of the success of the Master's Touch Self-study Library.
We were the first fully free-standing Internet only Divinity School
in America. By 2005, Master's was providing academic programs
to students in seventy world areas. In September of 2006, in
order to keep pace with the changing nature of theological distance
education, the institution was renamed as Master's International
School of Divinity .
THE
EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AT MASTER'S ARE BUILT AROUND THE OPEN
UNIVERSITY CONCEPT OF DISTANCE EDUCATION The Open
University (also known as open learning) concept can be summed up in
the following statements: Take down all artificially imposed
barriers to education; open learning opportunities to any qualified
individual by removing as far as is reasonable unrealistic entrance
requirements; wherever practical eliminate mandatory classroom
attendance and allow students to study from anywhere at any time;
use any form of technology and practical method that will facilitate
learning; eliminate unrealistic time constraints and let students
study at their own pace; and overall, promote education for adult
learners as an "activity" that can be accomplished through many
different venues. That is, wherever possible, take the school
to the student, rather than forcing the student to come to the
school.
MOST
IMPORTANT OF ALL IS THE FACT THAT THE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AT
MASTER'S ARE FOUNDED 100% ON THE BIBLE. We make no apology
for pushing, promoting, and proclaiming the Bible as the totally
inerrant Word of God. Our position is well stated in an
historic audio archive that was entrusted to Master's. Click
