Project Description
B.A./B.Th. Children’s Ministry
Overview
The Children’s Ministry focus combines 20 months of Horizon’s Pastoral Leadership program (includes 4-month internship) with a 2-year Early Childhood Education Diploma program from Saskatchewan Polytechnic. Graduates of this program are eligible to apply to become a licensed Level III Early Childhood Educator – a necessary credential for directing a child care centre.
Students graduate with both a B.A. from Horizon and a Diploma from Sask Polytechnic, opening the doors to either professional ministry or service in the public sector. Those wishing to graduate with the B.Th. designation must additionally complete two courses in biblical languages (Hebrew 1 and 2 or Greek 1 and 2).
Please note: Plus+ programs are not available to international students. Applicants must have citizenship or permanent residency.

Additional Considerations
This Horizon Plus+ degree program is available in partnership with Saskatchewan Polytechnic, or you may use similar studies from another educational institution to fulfill Horizon’s degree requirements. Ask us how.
Acceptance into Horizon’s Plus+ degree program does not guarantee acceptance into a Saskatchewan Polytechnic program.
Horizon Plus+ requirements must be met within 5 years of the completion of the Horizon portion of studies.
