THE “MISSION SEMINARY” CONCEPT

MINTS has developed a new approach….

M INTS has developed a unique approach to education for the new millennium, a pattern
that will become more common for schools in the near future. Traditionally schools have
organized a residential campus and invited students to move to their location to study.
MINTS, on the other hand, takes education to the people: in the city, in the suburbs, on islands, and to
countries around the world.
Our distance, or “mission oriented”, education consists of sending not just information but professors to
almost any place in the world where Christians are found. Working through local churches, the
professors and local leaders together develop interested ministry students to serve the local churches. The
education emphasis is on church planting, evangelism, and mentorship in the most necessary skills.
In Miami this means that our “campus” is the city. Classes are taught around town in various study
centers in English, Spanish, and occasionally French. This is the pattern of education tailored to the needs
of the residents is the model we want to develop everywhere in the world.

Internationally, the goal is to plant fully functioning, free-standing seminaries that will be locally owned
and will become an ongoing resource for that region. As students mature they will become the primary
professors for their people.
Planted seminaries are linked together through the MINTS educational system, which provides
curriculum, academic standards, administrative software, and on-site training for local leaders. As the
schools develop they share resources, personnel, and students for the common good of each language
group. We often say, “It has the local name on the door, but MINTS at the core.”

I I . D E C L A R A T I O N O F P U R P O S E

The mandate for MINTS is, “Preparing Christian Leaders for Ministry.” This is accomplished through
“academic and ministerial training of students to be ministers according to the Christian gospel both in
Miami and throughout the world by offering continuing theological education at a variety of academic
levels, via multi-media technology, offering courses in a variety of languages, and in the context of
ministry."

The degree programs of this seminary are designed solely for religious vocation and all degrees are in
Theological Studies.

As we are dedicated to world outreach and training we cooperate with many international organizations
dedicated to similar ends. These include:

Ligonier Ministries, RC Sproul

Langham Preaching, John Stott Ministries
 Third Millennium Ministries, Dr. Richard Pratt
MTW, Mission to the World of the Presbyterian Church in America
United Reformed International Mission Joint Venture Committee
ELI, Equipping Leaders International
CLIR, Confraternidad Latino Americano de Iglesias Reformadas
TNARS, The North American Reformed Seminary
EPI, Equipping Pastors International
Timothy Training

I D E N T I F I C A T I O N O F G E N E R A L G O A L S

A. MINTS will provide theological education courses in Biblical, Theological, Ministerial,

Contextual, and Liberal Arts studies.
This will be accomplished by offering courses for the following degrees:
1. Associate of Arts in Theological Studies
2. Bachelor of Arts in Theological Studies
3. Master of Arts in Theological Studies
4. Master of Christian Education
5. Master of Divinity
6. Doctor of Ministry
7. Doctor of Philosophy in Theological Studies
Degrees with specialization may add the designation at the end of the basic degree. For example,
Master of Arts in Theological Studies and Christian Counseling. A specialization requires a
minimum of 10 approved courses.
B. MIAMI will be one of the many location from which theological education will be provided with a
vision to have a worldwide impact.
Courses will be offered in the following formats:
1. Regular evening and Saturday courses will be offered on a trimester basis in Miami
2. Distance education classes will be offered world wide
3. On line courses will be offered globally
Students will be supported during their coursework through on-line services.

C. MENTORING will be provided by study center coordinators to all degree students in order to
enhance ministerial and educational excellence.
Each student will be assigned a coordinator whose responsibility will be to help the student
develop an educational and ministerial portfolio. This portfolio will contain the following
information:
1. Birth certificate
2. Social status identification (social security card or passport)
3. High school diploma
4. All post-high school academic diplomas and grades
5. Letter of current church status
6. Ministerial documentation
7. Resume
8. Plan for MINTS participation:
a. Letter of admittance and covalidation
 b. Record of payment receipts to local study center kept at local center
c. Record of MINTS grades
d. E-mail Record of MINTS correspondence
e. Study schedule for current year
f. Completion schedule for MINTS program

The mentor and student will meet regularly in order to keep track of the student’s spiritual and
ministerial progress.

D. MINISTERIAL STUDIES are immediately implemented in the Christian Community.

The field education program for the implementation of ministerial skills will be coordinated by
the study center coordinator in conjunction with the regular course load.

E. MULTI-LINGUAL courses will be offered in the MINTS curriculum.

Most courses may be taken in English, Spanish or other languages if there are a minimum of
eight (8) full time equivalence students registered and there is a professor who speaks the
language. As able, we will provide courses in the native language of each region according to
need. It is recommended that at least ten courses be translated or written prior to initiation a
MINTS study center in a different language. Plans need to be made for the completion of ten
more courses so students can graduate.

F. MULTI-MEDIA resources and technology will be used for the classes as appropriate.
Online courses are available. As deemed necessary, professors and teachers will have their class
information available on the MINTS web page. The following items will be posted:
1. Brief course description
2. Course admission data and form
3. Course attendance requirements
4. Course outline
5. Course work assignments
6. Course reading assignments
7. Examination arrangements
8. Feed-back instructions

G. MISSIONS, both at the local and international level, will constantly be promoted.
One of the mission assignments for students is to teach what they have learned to other students.
Course professors, local coordinators and MINTS support staff will facilitate that process.
Students and graduates are also encouraged to teach outside of their own context.

H. MODERATE pricing scale will be implemented in order to facilitate participation by all.

Special tuition rates are offered in different countries based on their local economies. Each
student needs to apply for financial assistance through their local study center. Discounts may be
made available based on the student’s and immediate family’s income. Effort will be made to
maintain MINTS tuition fees at affordable prices.
I V . E D U C A T I O N A L D E L I V E R Y S Y S T E M

The MINTS courses in Miami may be taken at one of several city-wide church locations during the
regular academic year. A variety of distance education materials such as videocassette and programmed
textbook courses are available on a limited basis.
V . A C A D E M I A
A. Authorization of Courses
MINTS is registered with the Florida Department of Education. This is not the same as
accreditation. The State of Florida does not accredit schools. Only regional and national
accrediting bodies offer accreditation to private institutions. Registration with the State of
Florida shows that MINTS is qualified and registered to grant religious vocational degrees in the
State of Florida and that it meets the regulations of the State. MINTS receives an annual
verification from the Commission on Independent Education of the State of Florida.

academic credits at the BA level; 25-50% at the MA level. There is no covalidation of credits at
the doctoral level.

D. Transfer/Equivalency

E Transcript Requests
Transcript requests are made through the Associate Academic Dean associated with the local
study center. The Associate Academic Dean will ask MINTS Miami to print the student’s official
transcript.

F. Student Documentation

of national identification, a photo, High School diploma, academic grade transcripts, other
post-secondary diplomas, record of MINTS covalidations and other correspondence.
3. Copies of the aforesaid documents are sent to the Associate Academic Dean prior to the

given to the AD six weeks prior to graduation.
4. The degree granting institution(s) require copies of the aforesaid documents and records will
be kept of the grades, transcript and graduation information of the students.

G. Academic Requirements

H. Academic Ethics
MINTS students should submit original academic work for their assignments, essays and exams.
All ideas and communications from sources other than the students must be documented. (See:
MLA Style Citations.) Failure of a student to heed faculty warnings may result in the expulsion
of the student from the course and the MINTS program.

All MINTS board members, professors, staff and students will treat each other in a decent and
orderly manner. Unchanged immoral behavior as defined by the Ten Commandments and
Christian Ethics may result in expulsion from the MINTS program.

Students, staff, professors, board members and supporters of the MINTS program may appeal to
the Vice President of Academic Affairs and the Education Committee concerning academic and
moral ethical responsibilities.

I. Class Conduct
All classes will begin with prayer.

Class attendance is required. 80% attendance is required for classes. Less than 80% attendance
may result in a failing grade. It is the responsibility of the student to notify the professor in case
of absence and to make arrangements for all necessary work.
The professor, after consulting with the Vice President of Academic Affairs, has the authority to
cancel and/or reschedule class.
J. Assignments
Students’ course progress will be evaluated through graded assignments. All final exams must
state clearly at the top of the examination what tools or materials may be used in the exam. Re-
examination may be permitted at the discretion of the course instructor.
 Students may complete assignments and take exams in appropriate languages. The professor will
announce the language choices at the beginning of the course and the student will indicate his or
her preference.

Required courses in which a student receives an “F” must be retaken in order to fulfill graduation
requirements. To improve a course grade by no more than 15%, the course may be retaken.

The final due date for all course assignments is the last examination day of each trimester. Work
turned in after the trimester deadline may be penalized one percentage point per week up to 20%
at the discretion of the professor. Course assignments more than three months late will not be
accepted.

The deadline for grades is established by the Vice President of Academic Affairs and normally
will be submitted to the Vice President of Academic Affairs within two weeks of the last day of
the trimester.

Only a professor, in consultation with the Vice President of Academic Affairs, can change a
student’s grade.

L. Student Concerns
Students may appeal to the professor concerning the grade given for the course. If the student’s
concern persists after discussion, both the student and the professor will meet with the Vice-
President of Academic Affairs. Following the consultation, the professor will issue the final
grade.

The following process will be used to deal with unresolved grievances involving MINTS
students, faculty and staff:
1. Should a grievance arise, first approach the other individual(s) involved to attempt to
resolve the situation in accordance with Matthew 18:15.
2. If no resolution is reached, discuss the situation with the Vice-President of Academic
Affairs. The Vice-President of Academic Affairs will assist the student in formulating a
plan to resolve the problem. The Vice-President of Academic Affairs will submit a
 written report of the plan to the President once the matter has been adopted by the Vice-
President of Academic Affairs and reported to the President.
3. If no resolution is reached, or if the student is not satisfied with the mediation of the
Vice-President of Academic Affairs, the student is encouraged to speak with the
President and then the board.
