Rhema has over 40 years experience in developing a highly effective curriculum. The first year places a strong emphasis on establishing students in the fundamental principles of the Word of God. The second year curriculum emphasizes the practical aspects of ministry – building on the first year program with advanced biblical study and more intense coursework. The school is a 2-year diploma programme.
The curriculum is designed to give the student a well balanced and solid foundation in God’s Word. The curriculum is great for ministers and those training for ministry, but will also greatly benefit deacons, helpers in the church, or anyone that desires a deeper understanding of the things of God.
There are a total of 24 courses in the first year and 23 courses in the second year, with a total of 705 teaching hours to obtain the Diploma.
Modular Curriculum
The school year is divided into modules – 4 in the first year, and 3 in the second year. Each first-year module lasts 3 weeks, with 2 subjects being taught every week. Second-year modules are 4 weeks long. First year campuses are located throughout Kenya, while the second year modules are taught on the North Coast of Mombasa.
