AIFC offers Biblical and Spiritual Christian counseling courses taught by a group of experienced staff who are committed to following Christ Jesus. The institution is a true Christ-centered Christian community that glorifies God. As a current student, I have been encouraged and transformed daily through my learning experience. I believe that any committed Christian who is called to enter the Christian counseling field will not be disappointed by studying here.

A brilliant course that takes you in a personal journey of discovery and healing on every level physically, emotionally, cognitively and spiritually. Deepening your fairh and helping you look at your motives which in turn brings insight and understanding. Through acceptance and taking responsibly for your choices and being accountable for your thoughts, words and actions you are able to forgive, let go of the past and healing to take place. Subsequntly you become a vessle to be used that is able to walk this journey with others.

Life Transforming Experience. AIFC offers students a wonderful opportunity to learn and to grow on a variety of levels. Personally, professionally and spiritually through a Biblical foundation that uses an eclectic mix of psychology that aligns itself with those biblical principles. You will have an opportunity to learn many wonderful things, with the insight and knowledge AIFC offers to its students through the supportive tutors they employ. These tutors are phenomenal in my experience and they want you to succeed. You will not only grow in character, but those learning opportunities will help you to bless others within your personal and professional networks. It also allows you to not only develop in various domains, but to form new friendships, and networks that, if you allow, will reward you greatly. If you are interested in studying with AIFC, it will optimize many areas of your life, because the Lord is with them as he is with you. I was so fearful of studying, and Im glad i ignored my fears, and obeyed the Lord. I walked in their like a lamb and came our roaring like a Lion, like i said this course will equip you, change you and more than anything transform you.

Quality of content and trainers is outstanding. But most of all I love the biblical base and core running through the whole thing and how it is so obviously covered in prayer. You wont regret it. It will change your life literally and equip you to do counselling/ministry in whatever form it takes, or just equip you for life.

I'm only two weeks in to my first year with aifc and am already astounded at the care and nurturing that this environment creates. It has been THE BEST learning environment I've ever been involved in, the amount of care that goes into us as students (both naturally and spiritually) is remarkable and so very rare!! Am thoroughly enjoying it so far and looking forward to a great year, or two, or three ahead!! Thank you so much aifc!!

A wonderful course. I am studying part time and looking forward to doing the second half of my diploma course next year. A lot of courses require that you have a degree in something first, to do the graduate diploma in counselling. I am so happy this course enables me without a prior degree to progress through counselling studies.

Best thing I have ever done, it has changed and is still changing my life and the life of my family. Great staff, great material, I recommend the diploma course even if you are not interested in counselling
