Becoming a Satellite Campus
To meet the needs of Christian leaders/pastors in diverse contexts, life situations, and prior educational opportunities, Vineyard School of Ministry Africa (VSM Africa) offers two tracks described as Non-Credentialed and Credentialed. Detailed description of these two tracks is found on our Programs page.
Potential satellite campuses must be directed by an academically qualified person. This individual must have a Bachelor’s Degree from an educational institution that is accredited by the National governing body in that particular country.
Non-Credentialed Certificate & Diploma Programs
Each Satellite Campus must sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with VSM Africa that details matters of student admissions, instructor’s qualifications, curriculum, and course fees.Applicants to this track are not required to possess a Secondary School Certificate nor pass an English proficiency exam. Courses and exams may be conducted in languages other than English.
Credentialed Certificate & Diploma Programs
In accordance with VSM Africa’s Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Daystar University, Nairobi, all satellite campuses must be in compliance with the same MOU. This requires compliance in issues of student admissions, instructor’s qualifications, curriculum, and course fees. Applicants to this track are required to possess a Secondary School Certificate (KCSE – C Plain, for Kenyans) or its equivalent.
