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

In this video, I want to show you how to use two important areas of your student account: the Home Page Dashboard and 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 Christian Leaders Institute learning journey.

As you scroll down, you will first see the My Courses section.

This area lists the courses in which you are currently enrolled. Each course shows your progress percentage, so you can quickly see how much of the course you have completed.

When you are ready to continue studying, simply click the course title to return to your lessons.

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

This panel shows the different types of credentials students may pursue through the Christian Leaders Institute ecosystem.

You will notice three main credential categories.

The first category is Christian Development Credentials.

These are adult education credentials designed to support personal development, Christian growth, biblical knowledge, life skills, and ministry foundations.

The second category is the Ordination Program.

This category includes study-based ordination pathways for specific Christian ministry roles.

For students in the Christian Life Coach Program, this is where you can explore the three Christian coaching ordination pathways:

The Soul Coach Ordination Credential,

the Ordained Christian Life Coach Credential,

and the Life Coach Minister Ordination Credential.

The third category is Degree Programs.

These programs offer college-level and degree opportunities through the Leadership Excellence School for students who want broader academic preparation.

As you scroll through the Available Credentials panel, you are seeing the wider learning and ministry ecosystem available through Christian Leaders Institute.

Let me give you a practical example related to this course.

Go to the Available Credentials panel and find the Ordination Program area.

From there, locate the Christian life coaching roles. Select the pathway you are exploring, such as the Soul Coach, Ordained Christian Life Coach, or Life Coach Minister pathway.

When you open a credential pathway, you will be able to see the courses and other requirements connected to that role.

This is one of the best places to understand your program progress and see which steps still remain.

You do not need to enroll in every pathway.

The Soul Coach pathway may fit someone beginning in volunteer or part-time Christian encouragement ministry.

The Ordained Christian Life Coach pathway offers more developed Christian coaching preparation.

The Life Coach Minister pathway combines Christian coaching with broader theological and ministry leadership preparation.

Begin with the pathway that most closely fits your present calling and level of preparation.

Your primary focus right now is to complete this Getting Started course and continue moving forward one step at a time.

You do not need to decide your entire future today.

It is simply helpful to know where you can find your courses, review the available pathways, and track your progress.

So remember:

Use the Home Page Dashboard to track your learning.

Look in My Courses to continue your current studies.

Use the Available Credentials panel to explore the Christian Life Coach Program pathways and review their requirements.

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