HSM Department of Christian Education

Christian Education for Growth, Service, and Academic Advancement

HSMDOCE provides the doctrine, curriculum standards, faculty oversight, student records, scholarships, and academic guidance for both HSM schools.

Practical Ministry Training

HSM Training Institute

Hands-on preparation for new converts, church officers, ministry teams, volunteers, teachers, ushers, deacons, elders, ministers, and other church workers. Students learn the Scripture, practice the assignment, submit demonstrations, and receive instructor feedback.

Public enrollment: open for nominal tuition. Approved new converts, officers, and church workers may receive church-sponsored scholarships for selected classes.

Academic and Degree Study

HSM Bible Institute

Structured biblical, theological, certificate, diploma, and degree-level education. Programs include broad course choices, electives, substantial literature, quizzes, examinations, discussions, papers, research, capstones, and thesis or dissertation work at the appropriate level.

Public enrollment: open for nominal tuition, subject to published admissions and prerequisite requirements.

Institutional Relationship

Two schools under one Department

The schools may share approved classes, instructors, resources, and student services, but they keep distinct purposes. Practical training prepares people to serve well. Academic programs support deeper educational advancement. A shared class may be cross-listed as an elective when it strengthens another certificate or degree requirement.

Governance

Authorized leadership approves doctrine, curriculum, instructors, course changes, assessments, scholarships, credentials, and academic standards.

Students read Scripture in context, enter the biblical story, discuss the lesson, respond to classmates, complete quizzes and pop quizzes, practice ministry skills, submit written or recorded work, and apply instructor feedback.
