Participants gain essential skills in curriculum design, teaching methods, and educational planning while grounding their approach in Scripture and the <em>missio Dei<\/em>\u2014God's redemptive work in the world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal \">Home educators learn to navigate legal requirements, select appropriate resources, and implement effective instructional strategies across all subjects. The program equips parents to articulate a compelling Christian homeschool vision that integrates faith formation with academic rigor, ensuring children develop both knowledge and Christ-like character.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal \">By completing this microcredential, homeschool parents transform from uncertain beginners into confident, purposeful educators who understand their vital role in discipleship. They learn to create learning environments where children encounter God's truth, develop critical thinking skills, and discover their unique calling in advancing God's kingdom. This professional development strengthens Christian home education and prepares the next generation for missional living.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-2218-0-0-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-button panel-last-child\" data-index=\"1\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-button so-widget-sow-button-flat-cff0f2a1d474-2218\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t><div class=\"ow-button-base ow-button-align-left\"\n>\n\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"sowb-button ow-icon-placement-left\" \t>\n\t\t<span>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tRequest Information \/ Register\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-2218-0-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-2218-0-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"2\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-c67d20f9f743-2218\"\n\t\t\t data-tooltip-enabled=\"1\" data-tooltip-theme=\"light\"\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/missional.university\/professionaleducation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/12\/micro512-fpk-window-with-house-background-pencil-table.jpg\" width=\"512\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/missional.university\/professionaleducation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/12\/micro512-fpk-window-with-house-background-pencil-table.jpg 512w, https:\/\/missional.university\/professionaleducation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/12\/micro512-fpk-window-with-house-background-pencil-table-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/missional.university\/professionaleducation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/12\/micro512-fpk-window-with-house-background-pencil-table-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/missional.university\/professionaleducation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/12\/micro512-fpk-window-with-house-background-pencil-table-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/missional.university\/professionaleducation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/12\/micro512-fpk-window-with-house-background-pencil-table-375x375.jpg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" alt=\"\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-2218-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-2218-1\" ><div id=\"pgc-2218-1-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-2218-1-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"3\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/h3>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">SCHOOL OF EDUCATIONAL PRACTICE<\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Department of Technology and Alternative Approaches<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute;
