MCC ’s accredited distance education degrees in Biblical Leadership and Management and Ethics are designed to provide busy adults the opportunity and flexibility to complete their degress with the same regionally accredited biblical education that our on-campus students experience.

The Biblical Leadership degree is designed to enhance your current ministries and careers and help you complete your bachelors degree. Each course meets for eight weeks and earns three semester hours of credit.

Online students may take any two of the distance education courses during each 8-week term, and there are two 8-week terms per semester. Generally, students spend an average of 12-15 hours per week on course work. This may vary depending upon how quickly you read and complete your assignments.

MCC also offers our Management and Ethics program for students who want to pursue business courses in a distance format. These courses are also offered in 8-week terms and feature the same successful curriculum as our current accelerated on-campus program.
