Church Music Certificate The Church Music Certificate is a 20-hour program of study offered through the College for bi-vocational ministers who serve in local churches in the areas of music and worship and who have not attained an undergraduate degree. The program is designed to be flexible enough to accommodate the schedule of a student who has part-time secular employment, part-time church employment and a family. Courses from the program can transfer into the Bachelor of Arts in Christian Studies and Music undergraduate degree program at The College at Southeastern. There are no prerequisites for admission to the Church Music Certificate program. However, incoming students may be asked to take a placement test in music theory.
