CHILD DEVELOPMENT INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE
ABOUT US
The Child Development International Institute (CDII) is a diploma-awarding institution dedicated to equipping men and women with sound theological and practical training for effective ministry among children.
The Institute offers a two-year Diploma Program, structured into four contact sessions. The program is designed for individuals who are actively involved in children’s ministry—such as children’s pastors, teachers, or handlers—but have not received formal training. It also welcomes young secondary school leavers who have a passion for children’s ministry and desire to pursue higher education in the field.
Graduates of the Institute can further their theological education to degree level and beyond in any reputable theological college of their choice. Students who have completed the Advanced Level of the program are eligible for Direct Entry Admission into the Diploma class and may complete the program in three contact sessions.
THE NEED FOR CDII
In the days of old, prophets such as Jeremiah wept bitterly for the physical hunger and deprivation of the children (Lam.2: 11-12 & 18).
Today, the spiritual needs and conditions of children are deplorable, if not worse than that of the time of Jeremiah. Only a handful of Christians seem to be concerned with this plight of the child. It is uncommon to find people resigning from respectable secular jobs to go into full time Christian work. It is almost a taboo to find anyone going into full-time children’s work. The fact that there is hardly any place where people can be adequately trained for this vital ministry may have been responsible for this lop-sidedness. Time has come to change the trend!
CDII exists to encourage and equip all those who are called of God into children ministry. CDII exists to take students beyond traditions to the fullness and depths of God’s word concerning child evangelism.
CDII TARGET
Our target is that upon graduation, graduates should be able to take charge of their ministries or whatever assignment they are given and build up children that are spiritually sound, socially balanced, mentally equipped and physically fit, simulating the growth pattern of Jesus Christ (Luke 2:52). We trust God that our curriculum will lead them to this. The courses offered in this institute are designed to give the students the required biblical foundation for child evangelism and the needed thrust for effective and successful ministry among these highly rated of God.
The CDII trains, equips and provides relevant materials for would-be (aspiring) children ministers to succeed. It promises a unique, purposeful, enriching, very enjoyable and memorable training experience.
