Classes are offered on Monday and Tuesday nights. There are also correspondence elective classes which a full-time student may need to take in order to be classified as full-time. Upon successful completion of the prescribed classes and elective units required to graduate, students are awarded an associate's degree (2nd year student), a certificate of theology (3rd year students), or a bachelor's of theology degree (4th year students).

There are four major courses of study offered at Berean Bible College, including a ministerial program designed to prepare individuals for full-time service as a pastor or an evangelist. Training includes preparation in such basic functions of the ministry as homiletics, exegesis, evangelism, pastoral counseling, church administration and conducting various types of worship services and meetings. The missionary degree aims to prepare the individual for full-time service in the mission field. It is similar to the Ministerial course except that it is intended to prepare students for service in missions, both at home and abroad. Special emphasis is placed on practical training on how to establish indigenous churches. The Christian Education degree seeks to prepare the individual for full-time service in the Christian Education program of a local church as an educational director and other related areas. Lastly, the Biblical Counseling degree trains people to view problems in life from God's perspective and will be encouraged to develop a methodology for change, which is in harmony with the Scriptures.
