The College for Family Studies (FAM) is part of the University of the Nations and offers training in the area of children, youth, family and marriage. We provide continuing education opportunities for (YWAM) missionaries, professionals and lay people through seminars, workshops and short-term courses, potentially leading to AA and BA degrees. These programs are designed to serve those who are currently working within various marriage and family disciplines. Seminars are offered (local and onsite) which address a variety of counseling, legal, ethical, religious, and political-legislative issues, as they relate to the family. These seminars are conducted in cooperation with local churches, social service agencies, educational institutions, and family agencies.
As a College we are closely linked to the network of YWAM Family Ministries international – check out the events and on-site courses!
