Education + Internship

Whether you are finishing high school, praying about what’s next, or considering going back to finally earn your degree, college can be a daunting experience.

Through our partnership with Southeastern University in Lakeland, Florida, students at HPC have the opportunity to earn their degree while immersed in full time vocational ministry.

Because Southeastern University values the students spiritual and educational experience, they offer extension sites at local churches throughout the nation and HPC is honored to be one!

This unique experience affords students the chance to receive an excellent and affordable education while surrounded in a godly environment. For parents, releasing your children to adulthood can be overwhelming, but HPC makes this transition fearless as students are connected to a strong faith community. One of the trademarks of HPC is personal attention, so we do our best to keep this program tight-knit for accessibility and accountability.

During this 2-4 year option students will step into new and exciting leadership opportunities like teaching classes and serving on the mission field. It may be difficult to work while enrolled in the SEU degree option. Upon completion of this program, students will receive their associate, bachelor’s, or master’s degree from Southeastern University.
