Glorifying God by equipping teachers, shepherds, servants, and leaders for lifelong service in the Church of Jesus Christ

“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for
correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.” - 1 Timothy 3: 16-17 (ESV)

The Reformed Baptist Institute seeks to give students a deeper understanding of the great truths of the Christian faith in order to increase a love of God and inspire a lifelong service to others through Christian ministry anywhere God calls His people to serve, from home and work to the wider world.

By completing the four core courses, a student can earn the Biblical Leadership Certificate. These courses are designed to give a broad overview of biblical Christian doctrine while equipping students to apply what they learn in their own lives and in ministry to others.

Course Information

Students may choose whether they want pass/fail grading or a standard grading scale (A,B,C,D,F) used in the courses they take.

A student may complete the Biblical Leadership Certificate with pass/fail. However, if they want to complete a possible diploma level degree later on, then they must use standard grading.

The standard three-credit course will include 14 nights of classes. The classes will last for two hours each and will typically meet once a week. Two of these nights will be used for examinations. The standard one credit course will meet for 10 hours. This can be accomplished over a period of five weeks or as a weekend seminar.
The three-credit course will cost $100 USD. The one credit course will cost $35 USD. This price includes all books and materials.
