Over the years, we have taken it as a ministry to help other Christian schools build their programs in order to reach more boys and girls for the Lord. We have been able to help through our clinics here in Pensacola and through A Beka Book. Approximately 10,000 Christian schools across America and around the world use A Beka Book materials.

Summer Seminar is designed to meet the needs of both administrators and teachers with an inspirational and in-depth training program in the effective use of materials and methods. Attendance is limited to representatives of Christian schools and Christian day cares. This seminar is of outstanding benefit to both the first-year Christian school teachers and experienced faculty. Make plans early to attend.

Please Note! Teachers who have attended Summer Seminar can continue to benefit from the sessions each year. However, if you are unable to send all of your faculty, please make sure to send those who have never attended Summer Seminar.
