If your goal is to be trained for ministry, equipped with a solid knowledge of the Word of God, and prepared to minister in the character of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, then Elim's 3-Year On-Campus Diploma Program is for you.

More than just a time of Bible training, this program is a three-year process involving in-depth study, weekly chapel services, hands-on ministry experience, times of prayer and fasting, and an opportunity to build lifelong friendships.

Core classes focus on building a foundation essential to a healthy Christian life, whether or not you plan to enter the ministry. This Biblical training combined with Elim's high academic standard will challenge you to reach your highest potential. Taught by men and women seasoned in God's Word, you'll learn to interpret and apply the Bible with confidence.

As a 3-Year diploma student, you will major in Bible and minor in Ministry, Youth Ministry, Music, or Missions.
