Providing Professional Development for International Professors

 

With Chancellor Pitzl and Chief Chancellor Rivers, online professors 
Chris and Carol Green address the Searcher Professors of UGCSI


UGCSI - Today, Professors Chris and Carol Green, joined with the Chief Chancellor (H.E. Sir Clyde Rivers) and the Chancellor (Prof. Michal Pitzl) of United Graduate College and Seminary International in an online Professional Development session for its global consortium of Searcher Professors.

"Professors Chris and Carol were complete leaders for our professors today," commented Chancellor Pitzl following a powerful, paradigm-shifting session. "Dr. Rivers and I had complete confidence that they could address every professor on that stage, and give each of them understanding in the process of being Searcher Professors."

Searcher professors are the front-line evidence builders and experiential success pioneers of an entirely different model of education known as Searcher Education or Authorship Education. In this model, Searcher Educators are experts by experience.  That experience is the foundation of Authorship Education: A Lifelong Learning System. 

According Rivers and Pitzl, "Authorship Education came from a collective need, from all walks of life, from several continents of the world; from everyday people looking for solutions to everyday life issues. Authorship Education drives to real life and is a lifelong learning system that changes societies. It believes that each person has a gift, skill and solution that was given by God, and therefore can 'author' their own philosophy." 

UGCSI is a private, fully accredited Christian College and Seminary, headquartered at Kayiwa International University, that provides its students an e-learning education model for their ministry training. With excellent Biblical programs, as well as accelerated ministry degree programs, it offers a truly practical, well-rounded international ministry education experience.

In June of 2020, Chris and Carol Green were announced as UGCSI's new Administrative Leadership educators. This couple was positioned to lead the Professional Development of its Global Consortium of Searcher Professors/ Educators.

As affiliate members and International Statesmen with iChange Nations™, Chris and Carol Green partnered with UGCSI to provide an accelerated, ministry-accredited life coaching certification program. After successfully establishing this International Leadership Life Coaching Program in the United States, the Greens were invited to join the leadership team as Vice Chancellors.

"It is such a blessing to lead with both of them," concluded Chancellor Pitzl.

Chris and Carol Green received formal Christian Leadership Training (a 5-year school of ministry) from Dr. Raphael Green (D.Ed.Min) who founded the Metro Christian Discipleship Academy in Saint Louis, Missouri; earning licenses and ordinations as ministers in May of 1991. To further enhance his education, Chris completed two business certification programs at the University of Missouri-St. Louis’ School of Professional and Continuing Studies. They both completed a lay-counseling certificate program from the American Association of Christian Counselors.

They continued to expand and grow in their professional development through their enrollment in United Graduate College and Seminary International (UGCSI), where they received Life Achievement, competency-based Bachelors and Masters degrees in Christian Leadership, as well as certification as master life coaches through its Colleges of Christian Education and Divinity: Educational Department.

After completing the Master Life Coaching program, they took their certifications and began volunteering their coaching skills in under-served communities, and it wasn't long before local organizations began to recognize and acknowledge the high-quality work that was being invested.

In 2018, Chris and Carol Green introduced their ground-breaking CARE-Ready Life Coach Training and Certification. As the world's leading producers of CARE-Ready Life Coaches™, they have been teaching and training community, government and education leaders, human service organizers, business visionaries, and neighborhood dreamers how to be much more effective by embracing the principles of CARE (Compassionate Accountability with Respect and Empathy) in their professional and personal lives. They LISTEN to people, LIFT people and LAUNCH people. Then they equip and empower them to do the same for others.

Chris and Carol Green are also recipients of honorary doctorates in Christian Leadership (Chris) and Humanities (Carol); as well as honorary doctorates in Society and Human Rights (both). They are currently candidates in the UGCSI Searcherdemic doctoral program.
