“The MAT program allowed me to stay up-to-date with current educational practices while pursuing state licensure. A master’s degree better equips me to be an effective tool in God’s hands; with my degree I can better serve my students. I am better prepared to meet my students where they are and give them what they need to succeed.”

“MBU’s educational program challenged me to grow in my teaching and leadership capacity. The material has been something I have not only used personally in the classroom, but I have also been able to challenge my teachers with some of the things I have learned. […] The Technology for Teaching and Learning class taught me much. Thankfully, I had already completed it when COVID shutdowns took place last year. By God’s grace, we were able to quickly figure a way to navigate the new waters of online learning”

—Matt Cook, B.S. Bible, A.A. Christian Ministry

“I am confident the leadership development I received during my time in the MOL has played a pivotal role in leading our Christian school during these unique times. I first decided to enroll in the MOL program because I wanted to further challenge myself in my leadership development. Because I was already established in ministry and in my family, I knew it had to be a fully online program and it had to be affordable.”

—Mark Lenentine, MOL, 2020

“Because I received my master’s in education from MBU, I feel more equipped to teach education classes at the Bible school my husband and I will be serving at in the Philippines. My husband David and I are preparing to move overseas for ministry in the Philippines. We have a heart for bringing the Gospel to the most unreached peoples of the world, and God has called our family to teach at a Bible school whose mission is to raise up indigenous missionaries to the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Africa. We will be using our God-given gift of teaching to train indigenous missionaries at a Bible school.”

— Elizabeth Haken, Masters of Education in Teaching and Learning & Grad Certificate in Mathematics, 2019

“The high-quality education I received from MBU prepared me for graduate school. During my undergrad at MBU I was an online student living in Arizona.
