Teaching Children Effectively™(TCE) Level 2 is a 30-hour collegiate level Children’s Ministry Institute (CMI) course designed to provide biblical principles and practical methods for guiding the saved child in the ongoing process of spiritual growth. The course is based on the premise that effective teaching of the Word of God produces change. In addition to regular course work, students are required to teach in five real-world children’s classes to receive a certificate.

• Two Practicums – This course will require two teaching practicums designed to provide practice in the teaching methods learned in the course before actually using them to teach children. You will be observed by an Instructor Coach during these two practicums.

• Locate a Real-World Teaching Assignment Location – This course requires five teaching times with children in a real-world classroom setting using the methods learned in the course. You must have a location available where you can teach children to complete this course.
