🎥 Video Transcript: How to Use Your Dashboard and Available Credentials Panel

Hi, I’m Haley, a Christian Leaders Institute presenter.

In this video, I want to show you how to use two important areas of your student account: the Home Page Dashboardand the Available Credentials panel.

After you enroll in a course, the Home page becomes one of the main places for tracking your progress.

When you click the Home button, you will arrive at your Dashboard. This page helps you see where you are in your learning journey.

When you scroll down, you will first see the My Courses section. This area lists the courses you are currently enrolled in.

Each course shows your progress percentage, so you can quickly see how far you have moved through the course. When you want to continue studying, simply click the course title to return to your lessons.

If you scroll further down the page, you will see another section called the Available Credentials panel.

This panel shows the different types of credentials students can earn through Christian Leaders Institute. In this panel, you will notice three main credential categories, or folders.

The first category is Christian Development Credentials.

These are typically adult education credentials designed to help people grow in personal development, Christian life skills, and ministry foundations.

The second category is the Ordination Program.

These credentials prepare students for ministry roles such as officiants, ministers, chaplains, and ministry coaches. Students who feel called to serve others in these ways often continue their training through this pathway.

The third category is Degree Programs.

These programs offer associate and bachelor-level degrees through the Leadership Excellence School.

So as you scroll through the Available Credentials panel, you are seeing the wider learning ecosystem available at Christian Leaders Institute.

Let me give you a practical example.

If you are interested in ordination, go to the Available Credentials panel. Find the Ordination link on the panel and click it.

Once you click there, you will notice different role categories. Go ahead and click Chaplain.

There you will see the Licensed Chaplain role.

If you click that icon, you will see the courses you need to complete for that credential. This is one of the best places to see your program progress at Christian Leaders Institute and understand what steps still remain.

For students in this course, your primary focus right now is to complete the course you are taking and continue moving forward one step at a time.

But it is very helpful to know that Christian Leaders Institute offers many opportunities for continued learning, personal growth, and ministry preparation.

So remember:

Use the Home Page Dashboard to track your courses.

Look in My Courses to continue your learning.

And explore the Available Credentials panel to see the many pathways available through Christian Leaders Institute.

As you keep studying, these tools can help you stay organized, understand your next steps, and move forward with greater confidence.
