Christian Leaders Institute Dual Enrollment
Microschool Resources at Christian Leaders Institute are designed to equip parents and educators with the tools to guide students toward a Christ-centered future. By partnering with homeschool families, microschools, educational co-ops, church schools, and soul center high schools, this initiative empowers local Christian leaders to provide accessible, high-quality education. Through free resources and affordable credentialing options, we aim to nurture the next generation of Christian leaders.
Our Mission: Equipping Local Christian Educators
The program, offered through Christian Leaders Institute, provides free educational materials and affordable credentialing programs to support local educators in their calling to lead young Christians. By creating flexible pathways, the initiative prepares students for both academic success and faith-filled lives, whether they choose further education or vocational ministry.
Local Resourcing: Empowering Parents and Educators
Local Resourcing refers to the pivotal role that parents or educators play in their own microschools. These individuals bring a personal, community-driven approach to education, creating a tailored learning environment for students. Rather than being tied to direct high school courses or adult education at Christian Leaders Institute, this program focuses on equipping homeschool parents, microschool teachers, co-op leaders, and Christian school staff with tools and guidance.
Local resourcing ensures students in these unique educational settings benefit from specialized paths that prepare them academically, spiritually, and vocationally.
