In the 93rd International Assembly, it was recommended that the Church of God of Prophecy pursue the development of The Tomlinson Center in cooperation with Lee University. The Tomlinson Center was launched in January 2006 as an on-line school. Through this initiative, The Tomlinson Center offers a student the opportunity to earn a Bachelor of Arts, or Bachelor of Science in Christian Ministries.
Courses are fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges (SACS). Each course will qualify for the requirements of the Tomlinson Center Certificate of Ministry Studies. Each course will also qualify for partial requirements toward a bachelor of arts/science degree in Christian Ministry from Lee University. Of the 130 hours required to complete the degree, only 36 hours must be completed at another college (general education courses like English, Math, etc.). Tomlinson Center is a fully accredited institution.
The advantage of working with The Tomlinson Center: primary focus is given to ministry preparation and scholastic biblical understanding.www.tomlins
