The International Association for Quality Assurance in Pre-Tertiary and Higher Education (QAHE) is pleased to announce that Olive Green University has successfully renewed its QAHE institutional accreditation.
Olive Green University is a faith-based, fully online institution serving learners who wish to combine academic study with Christian formation. It describes its mission as empowering students to grow in knowledge, character, and purpose through rigorous learning and a supportive community. Its published vision is to unite academic excellence with spiritual formation so that students can engage the world with wisdom, compassion, and purpose.
The University presents itself as a self-directed online provider for working adults and other distance learners. Its catalogue runs from certificate and associate awards through bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral programmes in fields such as biblical studies, Christian leadership, ministry, theology, biblical counselling, religious education, pastoral leadership, church administration, Christian missions, and related areas of Christian education and family studies. Study is offered on an ongoing-enrolment basis, with independent learning against set deadlines.
Public materials state that the institution is approved by the Arizona State Board for Private Postsecondary Education and list a mailing address in Goodyear, Arizona, together with liaison contacts in Calgary, Canada. Renewal of QAHE accreditation follows a review of the institution’s continued alignment with QAHE’s institutional quality-assurance expectations, including a clear mission, an organised programme portfolio, and an accessible online delivery model.
QAHE institutional accreditation applies to Olive Green University as the named institution. It does not automatically extend to separately branded academies, liaison offices, or partner entities unless those entities are independently reviewed and listed. QAHE accreditation is an institutional quality-assurance process. It does not constitute the authority to grant academic qualifications and does not replace Arizona state approval, professional licensing, or the recognition procedures of other countries.
QAHE congratulates Olive Green University on the successful renewal of its accreditation and looks forward to continuing the partnership in support of quality-assured online theological and ministry education. Further information is available at www.qahe.org.
