Several months ago, five regional coordinators were appointed to further promote the expansion and development of distance learning centres. Next year, Mukhanyo plans to appoint five more coordinators in others regions.

These coordinators serve to advance the training and developing of local tutors, manage regional marketing and networking, promote quality control, and guide the establishment of additional centres. Mukhanyo is thankful for the regional coordinator team:

---

• Rev. Alfred Masimula, regional coordinator for the Gauteng South region and tutor of the Tsakane distance learning support centre.
• Rev. Oageng Moncho, coordinator for the Southern North-West region and tutor at the Potchefstroom centre.
• Pastor Sechaba Legoete, coordinator for the Lowveld region and tutor at the Barberton centre.
• Victor Correia, coordinator for the Upper Karoo region and tutor of the centre in Orania.
  
• Bishop Jacob Dithipe, coordinator for the Platinum region and tutor at the Mahikeng centre.

Mukhanyo’s decentralised learning model is a unique approach through which Bible students come together for facilitated learning. Mukhanyo provides quality study material with DVD lectures, while local tutors mentor students both within and outside the classroom. This approach has proved to be very successful in Africa over the past 13 years. The distance programme currently offers three Mukhanyo qualifications: a church-based Focus programme and two accredited Higher Certificates, one in Bible Teaching and the other in Church Ministry.

There is enormous potential for many more facilitated distance learning support centres because Mukhanyo has a quality product and the systems to double the number of centres across southern Africa. Though many people claim to be Christian, the majority of these people don’t really know what it means to be a true follower of Christ. This approach is an effective way to promote faithful Bible knowledge within many communities across Africa.
