About This Collection
APNTS currently has three PhD programs: the PhD in Holistic Child Development, the PhD in Transformational Development, and the PhD in Transformational Learning.
In 2009 APNTS began offering courses for a PhD in Holistic Child Development. At the time there was a growing awareness of the dreadful conditions in which millions of the world’s children lived. The degree was launched, with the support of Compassion International, with the purpose of equipping leaders to minister with and advocate for children at risk.
In 2012 AGST and APNTS leaders began discussing the possibility of developing a PhD in Transformational Learning to equip a new generation of educational leaders to serve in Asia and beyond. The director of the Breese Institute East at APNTS joined the conversation, presenting the Center’s desire for a PhD in Transformational Development to transform society with God’s love.
Planning for the new degrees began in 2013 and on June 30, 2014 petitions for permission to offer the PhDs in Transformational Development and in Transformational Learning were submitted to the Philippine Commission on Higher Education (CHED). All three of the PhD programs have received CHED Recognition.
