Cross Training
Oklahoma Wesleyan University is pleased to announce Cross Training!
Cross Training is an online ordination program, designed for pastors desiring to be ordained through the Wesleyan Church. The Cross Training program is offered exclusively through Oklahoma Wesleyan University. The courses fulfill the academic requirements for ordination set forth by the Educational Ministry Department of The Wesleyan Church.
Maximum Flexibility. Cross Training is only offered online so you can be in class wherever you live or travel as long as you can access the Internet. You can go to class on your time, at your pace and at your location.
If the prospect of online classes concerns you or if you have never used the online format before, then consider this testimony from a pastor who moved from on-ground to online classes.
“I now prefer the online classes because I can read everyone’s posts. In a traditional class people are hesitant to talk, but in an online class you get to see what everyone posts.” D. Riley, Tulsa, OK.
We stand ready to assist you with training videos and staff who will gladly walk you through what you need to know in for a successful online experience.
Ultimate Convenience. Because classes are only online, you will have the chance to meet others preparing for ministry. Networking is assured as you develop and learn together from other high-powered leaders and teachers. You will be challenged spiritually and academically by your trained instructors.
Life-Changing Results. Utilizing the latest technology and 25 years of experience educating adults, OKWU has teamed up with pastors and leaders in the Wesleyan Church to bring you practical, engaging, and sound theological resources that you can use today!
