Due to the nature of our globally-diverse student body and the virtual nature of our courses, Berean Bible Institute does not currently offer a formal, on-campus commencement ceremony for any of our certificate, diploma or degree recipients. 

However, we do offer several options to highlight our student's spiritual milestones and achievements.  We also encourage students to communicate and work with their local churches to recognize their ministry accomplishements.  

As a default (and unless other arrangements are made), all certificates, diplomas and degrees will be mailed to the recipient at the address provided on this graduation form. 

NOTE: All options are subject to availability and are not guaranteed.  

The call to ministry is a lifelong vocation - one for which we are constantly growing and learning.  We exist as a ministry to partner with you on that path of lifelong learning.  We encourage you to select a new goal and consider further training with us.
