Course Sequence

The planned course sequence was collaboratively designed by SEBTS and River Oak to ensure that by using Equip courses, online courses, and Hybrid courses with SEBTS professors, students can work toward completing their graduate degree. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that any course they take through River Oak will count toward the specific degree program that they are pursuing, but many if not all will count toward the MACM specifically.

Equip = Practicums and Mentored Internships through the Equip Network

Online = Online or live, etc. at SEBTS

Hybrid = travel to SEBTS campus to participate in an intensive class with a SEBTS Professor
