Bible-Based Teacher Education Degree

The Bible-Based Teacher Education degree (BBTE) is designed to prepare students at the Associate-level for a degree in education (either in a Christian or in a Public school setting). Upon completion of the BBTE, students will transfer and complete their Bachelor’s degree in Education from Grace University (with whom we share a cooperative program). At Grace, students will take courses corresponding to the teacher education requirements in that program. Nebraska Christian’s BBTE degree requires 64 hours of credit: 28 hours of Biblical studies, 32 hours of General studies, and 4 hours of Ministry studies.
