Important Note About Credentialing and Credit
Courses completed through the Arizona School of Ministry (ASOM) meet the educational requirements set by the Assemblies of God for each level of ministerial credential. However, completing the courses does not guarantee that you’ll receive a ministry credential. Credentialing is a separate process that includes an interview, application, and district approval.
ASOM is a non-accredited Bible institute, endorsed by the Executive Presbytery of the General Council of the Assemblies of God for ministry training. While many students benefit greatly from the coursework, credits do not automatically transfer to a college or university.
We’re here to help equip and prepare you for the call God has placed on your life—and we’ll walk with you every step of the way!
