Training Options
Three options are available:
- Live-Streaming
- Online Self-Paced
- IABC Directed Study
LIVE-STREAMING OPTION
For students who appreciate the dynamics of a classroom setting, interacting with a professor and with other students. This option provides students the ability to be part of an online classroom and to connect with other students going through the same module at the same time.

ONLINE SELF-PACED OPTION
For those who do well with self-paced studies or whose schedule does not allow for attendance via Live Streaming, yet who want to complete their certification learning the same material that the regular student cohorts do via life-streaming.
Online Self-Paced students complete the educational portion of the program by watching videos of each session of each module, using the same Study Guides, completing the same reading, and turning in the same assignments as the live-streaming students.
Students who choose this option will be paired with a Teaching Assistant (TA) who will guide them through the educational aspect of our program.
We allow for twice the time to complete a module as the number of session for the module.
Example: Module 1, the "Foundations of Biblical Counseling" module is a 12-session module. For our self-paced students, we ask that they complete the module in 24 weeks. If more time is needed, the student will coordinate with the TA.

DIRECTED STUDY PROGRAM
The Directed Study Program is designed for those who are looking for a streamlined course of study to gain basic IABC Certification.
Students who chose this option will read several books, turn in one paper for each book, and work with the IABC Mentor ( in this case, our Director) to complete all requirements for IABC Certification.
Whenever possible, the Live-streaming is the prefered option. Our goal, however, is to make the unique Certified Biblical Counselor Program of Truth in Love Biblical Training Center available and accessible to as many people in as many locales as possible. Choose the option best for you or email us to set up an appointment to talk through the options.
