Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use my certificate to apply for further studies at a university?
SBI is not accredited by South African universities. Our academic programs are accredited by Theological Accreditation International (TACI), a U.S.-based accrediting body. Therefore, SBI qualifications are not formally recognized for admission into South African tertiary institutions.
What opportunities are available after completing my studies at SBI?
Graduates of SBI are well-equipped for full-time or part-time ministry, continued theological education through TACI-accredited institutions, and meaningful engagement within the marketplace. The program empowers individuals to lead and serve wherever they are called.
Can I become a member of NBCFC when I am a student at SBI?
Yes. Students are welcome to apply for membership at NBCFC, provided they are not currently committed to another local church. If affiliated with another congregation, a formal release letter from your senior pastor will be required.
