FOUNDED IN 2003

Central Christian University’s recent success belies its humble beginnings over a decade ago. In 2003, the Council Missionary Church of God began a small Christian university of fifty eight students and five professors.

By 2007, the school had 10 campuses worldwide, adding programs and garnering recognition from both mainstream culture and the world of academia. CCU also pioneered in establishing an educational institution in countries no Christian institution had done so, launching CCU in La Paz, Bolivia, and Port au Prince, Haiti.

Our goal was, has been, and will always be to make available the knowledge and wisdom of God through excellent education for pastors, leaders and professionals to not only become more effective in ministry but also teach and train others in the grace and knowledge acquired in these studies. With currently 27 campuses worldwide, we continue to pioneer, committing to this God-given mandate of impacting this world with the message of good news of Jesus Christ, educating and changing mentalities.

LOCATED IN ORLANDO, FL

Central Christian University is located in the city of the world’s best’s theme parks. A thriving metropolis Orlando is now home to many students who desire to prepare and equip themselves in their desired area of study at CCU.

SPONSORED BY COUNCIL MISSIONARY CHURCH OF GOD

Central Christian University is sponsored by the Council Missionary Church of God, Orlando, FL. As a Christian university operated under the auspices of the Council, CCU is firmly committed to the evangelical position of its sponsoring denomination.

8 MAJORS AND OVER 12 INDIVIDUAL PROGRAMS

The Academic Sector of Central Christian University is made up of four faculties and schools: the Faculty of Arts & Sciences, the Andres Bello Faculty of Education, the School of Religious Studies, and the School of Certifications. There are 12 academic departments and 7 graduate areas of study within the faculties and schools.

Alongside traditional on-campus programs, Central Christian University’s Online Division offers fully-online and hybrid programs (at both the Orlando campus and International centers) with today’s adult learner in mind. Never sacrificing convenience for quality, the Online Division offers undergraduate, graduate and certificate programs in a certified, Christ-centered setting. This commitment to both academic excellence and unwavering faith is the reason Central Christian University has grown throughout the years.

STUDY ABROAD - MORE THAN 27 TRIPS

The Global Engagement Program is one of the most unique and exciting opportunities that Central Christian University offers because it promotes students to travel and to study a culture different from their own. Every year, CCU offers between 25 and 30 cultural engagement trips, led by our very own credentialed faculty, as an economical and rewarding cross-cultural experience.

SERVICE LEARNING

Service learning was added to the curriculum in 2014, with the purpose to prepare students in community work and involvement. Since its start, students have done than 4,000 hours of service. Students may complete their service requirement through service embedded or enhanced courses, departmental service projects, or service coordinated through Christian Care Counseling Center and Chaplains of Florida outside the curriculum. A central goal of service learning is for students to learn how to use their academic knowledge to help others flourish and to address the roots of systemic problems.
