IAUC programs are designed for professionals called to ministry in all contexts --- whether within traditional church leadership or beyond its walls. We operate on the conviction that ministry is not confined to pulpits; it thrives in boardrooms, community spaces, and secular workplaces. While church-focused leaders will gain practical knowledge to deepen spiritual growth and revitalize congregations, our research curriculum empowers professionals ministering in non-religious settings --- educators, entrepreneurs, healthcare workers, and more -- to usher in the power of the Lord God and drive transformative impact in their fields.
Admission is highly competitive and holistic, evaluated on a case-by-case basis. We prioritize applicants with demonstrated an identity in their life's calling, professional experience, leadership potential, and a clear vision for ministry that aligns with their current vocation. While traditional full-time ministry roles are welcome, our primary focus is on equipping those redefining what ministry means in a rapidly evolving world. Your work history, current financial standing, an evidence-based calling of God, and hunger to apply biblical research knowledge gained in prophetic, deliverance, and worship into real-world contexts matter more than formal theological credentials or mere pulpit presence.
Our courses are delivered through a flexible format that includes self-paced video lessons, you can learn at your own pace, or follow a weekly schedule, join live virtual hands-on ministry practicals for those who can join or watch later, access a vast library of ministry books on the IAUC Digital library, and monthly office hours with Instructors for personalized guidance and support.
No, at IAUC, we do not rely on traditional exams or standardized testing.
Instead, our approach is centered on guided research and practical application. We believe that true preparation for ministry comes through active engagement, hands-on practice, and the development of real-world skills.
IAUC is designed as a furnace of preparation for ministers -- a preparation ground where ministers are not only equipped but also birthed into their unique calling through the pathways of Deliverance, Prophetic, or Worship. Through bite-sized research projects, you'll explore topics deeply, applying biblical principles and insights to address real challenges. These projects are tailored to your ministry context, whether within the church or beyond its walls, ensuring that your learning is both relevant and impactful.
In addition to research, you'll participate in virtual hands-on labs and practical exercises that allow you to grow into your calling through experience. This experiential learning model ensures that you don't just accumulate knowledge but also develop the confidence and competence to drive evidenced-based, data-backed, transformative change in your industry.
Throughout your journey, you'll receive continuous improvement through instructor feedback. Our faculty and mentors provide personalized guidance, helping you refine your research, sharpen your skills, and align your work with your ministry goals. Your success is measured by your growth, readiness, and ability to fulfill your ministry calling with excellence and authenticity.
IAUC currently operates as a non-conventional learning institute for specialized biblical ministry education, and we are not officially accredited.
We choose to prioritize groundbreaking research, intellectual freedom, and unconventional inquiry over conformity to traditional academic frameworks. While we acknowledge the value of accreditation in certain contexts and we are exploring pathways that align with our principles, IAUC firmly rejects the notion of compromising our core ethos-- such as diluting core biblical research and educational approaches or adhering to rigid, politically influenced, and polluted ministry norms -- solely to attain external validation.
As a frontier in ministry research and education, IAUC is the world's leading provider of technical biblical research-based education in prophetic research, deliverance research, worship research, experimentation, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Our main focus is on fostering unorthodox biblical scholarship, nurturing the future of ministry, and advancing biblical knowledge in ways that may not fit neatly into standardized accreditation criteria. IAUC attracts Bible scholars, researchers, and students who share its commitment to intellectual risk-taking and who value substantive contributions to biblical discourse and professional practice over institutional stamps of approval.
IAUC's objective is to prepare leaders who are empowered to address complex and emerging global spiritual challenges without bureaucratic constraints.
Advanced Curriculum: Our courses are crafted to challenge your intellect and expand your understanding of Scripture, theology, and ministry.
Practical Application: We don't just teach theory-- we equip you to apply what you learn in real-world contexts, whether in the church, marketplace, or community.
For Returning Students: If you've already completed a basic Bible program or have ministry experience, IAUC is the next step in your journey. Our learners are often returning theology students who are ready to dive deeper.
Mentally Stimulating: Forget surface-level lessons. Our programs are designed to engage your mind, spark critical thinking, and inspire innovative approaches to ministry.
