Spiritual Enrichment Certificate

No degrees, just lifechanging.

Are you a Christian who is not currently interested in a degree, but wants to be immersed in a spiritually rich environment?

The Spiritual Enrichment Certificate (SEC) program may be exactly what you need!

The SEC program has been developed to meet a growing need: young people who don't know what to do next, but do know they want to grow closer to the Lord.


As part of the SEC program, you will:


  • Increase in knowledge of the Bible
  • Manifest a measurable increase in personal spiritual formation
  • Strengthen personal relationship with God
  • Grow in awareness of spiritual gifts according to 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 
  • Develop practical skills to share the Gospel and minister to others
  • Learn to engage in prayer and spiritual warfare



For additional information about the Spiritual Enrichment Certification program, please contact the Admissions Department.

Elim is more than an academic institution. It imparts a heart for ministry and provides students with in-depth practical experience. Students experience hands-on ministry in the local community through their Student Ministry. They also participate in a three-week internship in New York City, providing them intense opportunities to grow and learn in an urban ministry environment.

Because this is a non-degree granting program, federal and state financial aid is not available. For this reason, this program has been priced at a fraction of the cost of our degree-granting programs to make it as affordable as possible. The flat rate for attendance as an SEC student is $8,500 per year, which includes tuition, fees, room and board.
