Online Courses for Women, by Women
Have you ever sat in a Bible study and thought, I’d really like to know more about how this teacher learned all of this? Or maybe you’ve considered going to seminary, but you’re not sure you can commit to homework, a class schedule, or working toward a diploma at this time. Or perhaps you did go to seminary, but it’s been a few years and you’re feeling rusty when it comes to theological terminology and practices.
If you’re interested in learning how to study and teach the Bible and how you can use your interests and gifts in the church and the kingdom, Lifeway Women Academy is where you begin.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do courses have an end date or a registration cut off?
Nope! Once a course is live, you can register for it at any time, and you'll gain unlimited access to all content in that course. You can complete Lifeway Women Academy courses at your own pace and on your own time. Plus, you can revisit the content anytime you want in the future!
What does my $59 registration include?
The $59 registration includes one Lifeway Women Academy course. The first course includes 10 video teaching sessions, notes, a group discussion guide, and additional resources. You'll have unlimited access to that content, so you can complete the course in a way that works with your schedule.
Do I have to sign up for the first course in order to do the second one (or future courses)?

What does on demand mean?
On demand means that you can complete the course at your own pace on your own schedule. It's like on-demand TV—it's not live, so you can watch it whenever!
