Christian Institute (CI) is approved with the California Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS), approval number PCE 3289, and the California Association of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselors (CAADAC), approval number 4S-04-408-0908.

CI does not offer CEU courses that are just a quick way to earn CEU credit. Based upon its goal for learners to walk away with the credit as well as an enhanced knowledge of the course's subject matter, CI's course design is to equip learners through inductive reasoning.

In recognizing that learners prefer to take courses in different formats based upon their learning styles and need, CI uses more than one way to offer online Continuing Education Courses. CI uses discussion questions (DQs) to which learners write out their responses. After reading the assigned reading learners then write a short response, usually 250 words, to the DQ. The number of DQs and the length of the required responses correlate with the number of continuing education hours for the course.

CI also uses objective questions (multiple choice or true-false) to have learners garner essential knowledge from the readings.

Each course is designed to offer students the opportunity to learn the content of the specific area. In addition, CI uses the very, easy-to-use, online platform of Moodle for all of its courses

Learners also have the option to incorporate a Biblical perspective to each course. At the end of each course is a passage of Scriputre about the topic. Learners can choose to respond to the Discussion about the Scripure. This portion of the course is not calculated in the pass or fail of the course; it is for enhancement for those who choose to complete it.
