Why ELTU?

Home / Why ELTU?

1. Christ-Centered Coaching

The need for maximizing our personal, professional, and spiritual potential through education, training, self-care, and co-partnering in a safe supportive environment has never been more vital.  The disruption of 2020 left many people feeling stranded, disconnected, out-of-sync with the world and what was taking place around them. Many people all over the world were infected, shocked, or impacted by a large family of viruses known as coronavirus or COVID-19, inciting a global health pandemic and universal life crisis. As the world health crisis continues to lurk and linger, there is also political, social, and racial unrest all at the same time. People everywhere are trying to focus on work and nations across the world struggle to make the biggest economic decisions of our time – whether to provide a one world international system of money currency and what to do next in a post-COVID environment. Add to this artificial intelligence (AI) and technological advances which may threaten the very existence of mankind without human moral values and standards for what is ethical and what is not. As a result, individuals and families, professionals, and marketers all over the world may feel less confident and unsure about themselves and the amount of progress that can take place in life personally, professionally, and spiritually. Learning to navigate one’s way through desired change is an all-too-important task – much too important to leave to the way things were before. Simply put:

2. Leadership

To meet the growing specialized needs and demands of self-directed learners, every person and  especially believers in Christ need to learn how to coach and manage change. Elevation Life Transformation University (ELTU) opened its doors in January 2022. Our school is unique. We consider the ELTU self-directed learning model to be best for leaders, coaches, and aspiring agents of change throughout any industry. Specifically, working professionals, millennials, and leaders who consider themselves called by God into their “purpose” will find that ELTU offers faith-based degrees and instruction specifically dedicated to the leadership profession, plus coaching seminars and certificates. We maximize the personal, professional, and spiritual potential of leaders for both current and future generations. Our training is not only geared towards the faith marketplace, but also towards business. Individuals looking to enhance themselves and their careers through leadership transformation, coaching, human capital, and change management will find ELTU to be the perfect place for self-directed learning, increasing their knowledge and education by reskilling, upskilling, and maturing to impact lives wherever they serve.

 

 

3. Change

Self-directed learning, self-education, and self-study is not a new thing. Our ability to respond to changes in the landscape of work, technology, and our personal lives is now determined by how skilled we are at increasing our self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and self-care, including educating ourselves. Self-directed education can propel individuals into careers that they love rather than keep them confined in jobs that they hate. Through self-directed learning, you can create a path you are excited about outside of a traditional classroom. The whole world now knows that self-directed education is a core skill for this 21st century. But how well we take full advantage of information available to us to grow our skillsets and socially interact with others using them is primarily determined by how well we take self-care to grow and mature ourselves, thus tapping into our potential. ELTU raises the standard of the self-directed learning process by developing students personally, professionally, and spiritually. We educate students by increasing their leadership, coaching, and change management skills which enables them to interact with others, grow, and mature themselves. Students applying the benefits of these learned skills, approaches, and techniques maximize their ability to find new ways of learning and solving challenges they face both now and throughout life.
