Official Diploma & Credential Program
Formalize Your Biblical Training
The AISOM Diploma & Credential Program allows students to formally complete the 22-course biblical training curriculum and receive official recognition of their studies.
While many students begin by studying the courses freely, the diploma program provides the opportunity to document your work through an official printed diploma and academic transcript.
This program is designed for students who desire to grow in their understanding of Scripture while preparing themselves to serve more effectively in ministry.
What You Receive Upon Graduation
Students who complete the full 22-course program receive:
• A Printed Diploma in Biblical Studies with the official AISOM gold embossed seal, suitable for framing and presented in a certificate folder
• An Official Academic Transcript documenting 87 transferable biblical credits
• The ability to request that AISOM forward your transcript to other institutions if needed
Pathway Toward a Bachelor Degree
Graduates of the AISOM Diploma Program may transfer their 87 credits toward the Bachelor of Biblical Studies (BBS) degree at Ames Christian University (ACU).
By completing 11 additional courses (33 credits) through ACU, students can reach the full 120 credits required for the bachelor’s degree.
This pathway allows students to build upon the foundation established through AISOM and continue advancing their biblical education.
Preparing for Ministry
Completing the AISOM diploma program helps strengthen your understanding of Scripture and equips you to communicate God’s Word with greater confidence.
Graduates may also request consideration for:
• Ministry licensing
• Chaplain licensing
These opportunities provide additional ways for graduates to serve effectively in ministry and outreach.
Your Next Step
The AISOM Diploma Program provides a clear pathway for students who desire to move beyond informal study and receive formal recognition of their biblical training.
Many students begin their journey with the free courses and later choose to complete the diploma program to document their studies and continue advancing in ministry preparation.
Important Note
After completing the AISOM diploma program, graduates are not obligated to continue toward a degree through ACU. Many students simply complete the AISOM program as a personal milestone in their biblical education.
Whether you continue toward a degree or pursue other opportunities God places before you, we celebrate your commitment to studying His Word.
Dear Staff,

Thank You.

“I have been working on “Battle for the Body” and wow, what a concept. I have been a pastor for nine (9) years and have barely even scratched the surface of all the knowledge. I am finding the wisdom is great and I like what I see. The lessons are challenging. If we only knew as pastors what God is really like we would be a lot more effective in our ministries.”

“I want to express my delight in my first study course. It is truly enjoyable, and rich in a wealth of information. It is concise and to the point – simple, but yet profound in context. I want to express my appreciation to Ames Christian University for making such a wonderful program available, and most of all to the Lord for directing me to your Website. “

“I am really enjoying the Old Testament survey. The added study sections after the self-tests are really good. I am currently in the book of Judges and I seem to be coming along well. God has blessed me with a mind ready to search out and receive His truth. Thank you for this ministry and I am very pleased with the materials so far and I look forward to the coming modules.”

“I enjoyed the first course I am taking. Although between work and my home life with the wife and child I do not get as much studying done as I would like but I am moving along. I would like to say thank you for offering these courses at such affordable prices otherwise I would not be able to go to college right now.”

“Hi, it has been close to one week since I enrolled in your college. I just completed Chapter 5 in the Old Testament Survey course. I think the way Harvestime International has put these courses together is great. I am very excited about the studies and being enrolled at Ames. I wish I would have found out about Ames a long time ago.”

“Genesis has turned out to be a great study. I’ve spent a little too much time on it and have slowed down on progress with the rest of the course, but I think it has been worth it. The course has turned out to be even better than I thought it would be.
