Briggs' Theocentric Psychology was first documented in the published work entitled "A Comparative Historical Analysis of Freudian, Adlerian and Theocentric Psychologies" in 1994 (Dissertation, Walden University).   IBTP provides an opportunity for Apostolic Pentecostal Pastors, Leaders, Professionals and Students to study both Briggs' Theocentric Psychology as well as other main stream secular psychological theories. 

World Christian Ministries Association (WCMA), United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI), Assemblies of the Lord Jesus Christ (ALJC), Pentecostal Assemblies of the World (PAW), Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ (COOLJC), et. al, can all benefit from this specialized professional psychological training institute.  Graduating students receive one of three certifications that run concurrent with degree programs at the University of World Christian Ministries Association.

FROM THE PRESIDENT

IBTP of UWCMA is a Certification Program that offers high quality, non-traditional education and training in the highest field of study known to man--theology (as well as other allied fields).  However, IBTP of UWCMA is not a physical place but exists everywhere our students and faculty are.  IBTP of UWCMA is comprised of people not buildings. 

Although we are a university without walls, our programs are intensive and challenging by utilizing “experiential” learning and scholarly inquiry.  IBTP of UWCMA uses a system of education designed for professionals and independent learners.  In this way students are permitted to earn a degree while maintaining career and family obligations. 

IBTP of UWCMA’s programs build upon professional, personal and spiritual competence and seeks to enhance that competence through scholarly inquiry.  IBTP of UWCMA students are encouraged to promulgate their research outcomes as an attempt to increase public awareness of religious philosophy that should influence the political, economical, moral, educational, and ecclesiastical arenas. 

As President I want our students to benefit spiritually, mentally and professionally.  To our prospective students, I pledge support of their hopes, aspirations and visions.

 

Daniel Briggs, Ph.D.
