What is the BCC?

The BCC is a three month secondary school in YWAM's "University of the Nations" (UofN), designed to help you study God's Word and apply it practically into your everyday life. Bible teachers will instruct you on how to study Scripture on your own and teach you methods that will open it for you.

Six days a week, you will read, explore and dig into the Bible. It is an intense school, but you will be astonished by how much God will show you in these three months; how He will open up this "old book" to you and enlarge your understanding of who He is. God has a plan for your life and this world and He wants to show it to you!

IN THE BCC YOU WILL

Learn to study the Bible using the inductive study method.

Learn to preach and teach the Bible (including proper preparation).

And much more...

OPTIONAL STUDY TRIP

The Bible will come alive with an opportunity to take a study trip to Israel, where you will walk where Jesus walked and experience historical places of the Bible (e.g. Jerusalem, Sea of Galilee, etc.).

Trip is optional and is not necessary to receive credits for the course, though we strongly encourage it. Places to be visited can differ from year to year. The trip costs around 11000 NOK

Please note that we plan the trip a few weeks in advance to the start of the school. This means that if you are wanting to join the trip, we suggest that you apply at least one month in advance to the start of the school. If it exceeds this, no guarantees can be given in terms of e.g. prices and availability.

Below you can watch this video from one of our former students to get an impression about the Israel trip.

You will be amazed, strengthened and equipped for the future. Yes, it is hard work, but the reward is even greater. Join us and be part of a great journey through this ageless book that changed and is continuing to change lives and nations!

We are currently experiencing problems with the Bible Core Course (BCC) Reference form. Please send a copy directly to bcc@ywamrogaland.no so we can better process your application. Don’t hesitate to contact us for any questions.

BCC outreach

we also offer a BCC outreach that is optional to take after you’ve completed your BCC.
We travel to a different nation to put into practice the skills we have learned during the BCC and share our newfound knowledge about God and the bible.
