SIBINW Evening School

The SIBI Northwest Evening School is an opportunity for those who are interested in studying God’s word to participate in classes in their spare time.  We offer students the opportunity to engage in college-level, in-depth Bible study and Bible-based counseling courses. These courses are designed for those who want to dig deeply into God’s word, strengthen their personal faith, or for those who just enjoy studying the Bible.

Courses taken at the Evening School differ from the two year ministry program. However, many of the courses can be taken for credit toward the ministry program.

A qualified instructor is present during every class session to help answer any questions you may have regarding material presented. Additionaly, some courses feature video lessons produced by Sunset International Bible Institute.

SIBI Northwest Evening School does not offer any secular courses or degrees. We do not reject any person based on culture, race, gender, or creed.

If you are interested in attending any of the courses being offered during the Winter quarter, please fill out the pre-registration form and mail it in no later than December 28th.  Pre-registration will ensure books are available at the start of class.  Registration after this date will be accepted; however, books may not be available until after the start of classes.

Benefits

As a student in the Evening School you may choose to audit courses or take them for full SIBI credit.  In either case, your life, your ministry, your relationship with God, and your fellowship with the local church where you worship will be enriched.

Students may choose to take all classes, or just one or two. New classes start in either August, October, January, and March. Following are the time slots that are most generally used:

Tuition is free for students who wish to audit a course. However, the study guides for the courses are required and must be purchased. Tuition for level 2 and level 3 courses is $50 per class per student, plus the cost of textbooks and materials.

Courses are 13 weeks in length and take place Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings.  Study program levels and certification requirements are described below.

Study Program Levels

Each course may be taken at different levels, depending on the needs and desires of the student. The level chosen determines the degree of work load to coincide with the students available time and energy. The level also determines what certificate is achieved and the ability to transfer to the ministry study program.
