Estudos da Familia

A missão da Faculdade de Estudos da Familia é equipar as famílias – incluindo solteiros, jovens e crianças – com ferramentas e compreensão para celebrar o desígnio de Deus como filhos e filhas; para que sejam transformados e se tornem agentes de transformação, expandindo o reino de Deus e levando Sua bênção às nações. Essa transformação é contracultura e, portanto, requer estratégias intencionais. A faculdade visa impactar as nações por meio de seus programas e atividades, incluindo: treinamento, mobilização e pesquisa, acessíveis em todas as nações, línguas e culturas; compartilhando valores familiares divinos e praticando-os culturalmente e globalmente.

The UofN uses two types of credits, FLW (full learning weeks) and LCU (learning component units).

FLW credits are used with traditional residential courses and one of these credits requires a minimum of 50 hours of documented learning activities; these include our normal lectures, small groups, one-on-ones, etc.; and some of these activities are nonformal, in addition to the classroom activities and study assignments.

LCU credits are used for part-time programs like evening courses, intensive seminars, distance learning and other non-residential courses. Each LCU credit requires 25 hours of focused learning activities which can be spread over a period of time.
