Academics

 

At Word of Life Bible Institute Owen Sound we offer a one-year program, made up of two academic semesters and a summer ministry practicum. Those who complete the program are honoured with a Certificate in Biblical Discipleship at graduation. 

The goal of our program is to educate students on the Bible and the Christian faith within a connected academic atmosphere to prepare them for a life of great effectiveness for the Lord.

In addition to our standard academic programs, we offer unique internships and networking opportunities for students interested in pursuing ministry.

Whatever your dream and calling, the Bible Institute has the program for you.
