WELCOME TO THE EPITROPE SCHOOL FOR APOSTLESHIP EDUCATION & DEVELOPMENT
The Epitrope School is the first of its kind.
It is a school designed specifically for the awakening, education, development, and training of emergent, emerging, and seasoned persons called or functioning in the Office of Apostle. The Apostleship Education and Training Program consists of three unique components that offer a well-rounded education and prepares God’s elect for a lifetime of commissioned service to the Kingdom.
-
We provide students with the necessary foundation to handle the weight of true apostleship. We call it both biblical and theological because the Bible will be the only source of truth and theology will be the paradigm through which we will intellectually frame the information gleaned from holy writ.
-
The final component will provide the student with personal times with Mentor Apostles these times created for the Apostles in Training (A.I.T’s) or Apprentice Apostle the up-close and personal counsel, advisement, wisdom, and experience that sharpens the iron form what happens they are made.
-
We equip students with the blueprint of contemporary apostleship and the details of their commission to equip them with a readiness to engage and influence their world for the Lord Jesus Christ. With biblical apostleship as a heuristic model, we will produce apostles who will be ready to function ecclesiastically, executively, governmentally, and diplomatically.
CHANCELLOR’S WELCOME
Dear Learner,
My name is Dr. Corey D. Butler, and I am the Chancellor of IGNITE University and the Senior Facilitator of the Apostleship Education and Training Academy. I would like to take this time to welcome you as a potential student to our program. I wanted to take this moment to offer a short treaty on our commitment to quality academic education and apostleship preparation. We live in a day of fly by night apostles and online ordinations. This demonic agenda has been designed to defame the vetting process and open this sacred institution to demonic decoys, novices, and the simply unfit. It is our commitment to providing both a reputable education, but also an academic curriculum that will weed out those who are embarking on this journey with selfish ambition and not the agenda of the king. From our initial assessment to the learning environment and the curriculum we have designed this academy to detect, develop, and deploy a generation of apostles into the apostleship of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Students will possess the abilities and have the capacity to bear the mantle and exercise it within the sphere of their commission without bringing shame or causing the King to suffer loss. No longer are the days where the miseducated and underqualified will represent the Lord and direct His affairs in the earth. This academy will host only the best of God’s elect, His elite, and prepare them for active service. In these pages, you will find all of the information pertinent to making a quality decision about your future in the apostleship. You will find an overview of our program from the application process, to the induction and we will detail the curriculum and also address deployment (commissioning and credentialing). I look forward to partnering with you in Apostleship and Kingdom Development.
In His Service,
DR. COREY D BUTLER
CHANCELLOR, IGNITE UNIVERSITY
The Apostleship Education Program Tracks
The Apostleship Education and Training Academy offers three educational tracks and two credentialing options. The educational tracks have been designed to service a wide variety of students from the Novice Apostleship Learner to the Expert Apostleship Learner and position them in the best educational track for their level of learning.
-
(Non-Commission) is for those apostles who have already possess a commission and credentials but lack the education and training required to execute the fullness of their mantle.
-
is for those Apostles who require both Apostolic Education and Training as well as commissioning and deployment credentials. While this track is for Commissioning and Deployment such is NOT GUARANTEED, they are contingent upon the successful completion of the Apostleship Readiness Assessment and interview with the commissioning panel.
-
is for those Apostles who have been commissioned and have been in the office with appropriate fruit. Who may have been trained by the school of experience, who desire the formalities of apostolic education and academia.
-
The Commission & Deployment Option - this option is for those who successfully completed the program and have passed the Apostleship Readiness Assessment and Panel. Upon successful completion of the aforementioned The C&D option hosts a corporate commissioning ceremony where the participants will receive the commissioning and ordination credential, Apostle Ring, Commission, and the Apostle’s Sword.
-
The Commission, Deployment, and Degree Option - this option is for those who successfully completed the program and have passed the Apostleship Readiness Assessment and Commissioning Panel. Participants in the degree program must obtain duel admission through IGNITE University. Participants must meet all admission requirements for the degree and have received a passing grade of C or better in all classes and on the Capstone, Masters Thesis or Doctoral Dissertation.
ADMISSIONS PROCESS
-
To ensure quality in both the academic curriculum and student body, the Apostleship Education and Training Academy has set a rigorous set of standards for admissions together with a stringent admissions process which has been designed to weed out devilish decoys, the characterless and the novice. The admissions process begins with completing a robust application and remitting a Non Refundable Application Fee $50.00. Upon receipt of the application, one then receives the AETA - Admissions Packet which must be completed and returned within 14 days of the receipt of the application.
-
Basic Apostleship Knowledge Assessment. This assessment will score your knowledge of basic concepts, terms, principles relevant to biblical apostleship, which will in turn aid us in understanding your current level of knowledge of apostleship, provide a recommendation for the commission, credentialing and deployment upon completion, and help in picking the educational track that is best suited for you.
-
Upon completing the curriculum vitae, references, and the application and interview will be scheduled with a panel of Apostles and Apostolic Prophets who have reviewed the application and the accompanying documents. The panel will investigate your fitness for selection and readiness for admission and service in the apostleship. The Interview will be approximately 60min in length.
-
The AETA accepts those persons into its program based primarily upon a stringent set of admission standards, and a sensitive ear to leading of the Holy Spirit. Upon completion of the interview and deliberation of the Panel, the student will either receive an invitation to the Apostleship Education & Training Academy. Upon receipt of this invitation, a response is requested within 48 hours of receipt. At which time you will be forwarded the next steps. Applicants who receive a Denial of Admission to the program will receive a denial letter detailing the reason for our decision and recommendation for admission. There is no appeals process for this program, applicants are allowed to re-apply to the next open session admission.
