Christian Leaders Institute provides this Verification Class for students interested in seeking to transfer Institute credit to an accredited partner institution (there are more limited transfer options for the Institute than for College-accepted students, so unless there is a reason a student is unable to pursue College admittance, the Institute suggests that most transfer-seeking students apply to the College as soon as possible).
