A Word from Our Director…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has long been my desire to see more Christians access higher education and grow in their understanding of Scripture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knowledge of God empowers us to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Equipped, trained, and educated servants of Christ will take the true gospel to the ends of the earth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My prayer is that through the education provided through YCI, lives and hearts will be changed forever.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n\n\n\n

Does YCI offer courses other than Theology? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Currently, YCI only offers theology classes at the proficiency, certificate, and diploma levels. In the future, we will add a Bachelor of Theology degree. We are also looking to expand by adding teacher-training courses for Early Childhood Education and primary education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

How much does it cost to attend? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The cost of the courses varies depending on the level the student wishes to study at. Please see our courses page for more details. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Where are classes held?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Classes are held on the compound for Calvary Chapel Yumbe. We are located at Abattoir Road, Charanga Ward, Yumbe Town Council, Yumbe District, Uganda. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Are there accommodations available for students? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dorm-style accommodation is available for students free of charge during their two weeks of in-person lectures. Students are advised to bring their personal items, bed sheets, and mosquito nets in order to make themselves comfortable. Mattresses are available on a limited basis. Separate accommodation is available for men and women. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
