The Great Commission Theological Institute (GCTI) has been officially awarded Silver Course Accreditation by Coaches and Mentors of South Africa (COMENSA).
COMENSA is the leading professional body for coaching and mentoring in South Africa, recognised by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA) with a SAQA ID: 942. As a professional accreditation organisation, COMENSA is dedicated to maintaining the “Gold Standard” of coaching through strict ethical codes and professional behavioural standards.
This Silver Accreditation confirms that GCTI’s training programs meet the high-quality requirements necessary to produce professionally recognised coaches and mentors within the South African landscape.
COMENSA ensures that all accredited courses are not just educational but also practical and ethical.
The Behavioural Framework: This is a set of rules that defines what a good coach should be able to do. GCTI’s courses are designed to meet these specific skills.
Continuous Monitoring: COMENSA doesn’t grant accreditation once; it requires schools to maintain high standards each year to remain accredited.
GCTI does not rely only on outside bodies; we have our own internal Quality Assurance (QA) system to protect our students.
Curriculum Review: We regularly update our lessons to make sure they match global trends in theology and leadership.
Faculty Excellence: We ensure that our teachers are highly qualified and understand both the academic and spiritual needs of the students.
Student Support: Part of our quality standard is making sure students have the administrative help they need through our partnership with offices like McWilliams Academy.
