Nondegree Study Programs
UCS Certificate & Sabbatical Programs in Creation Spirituality The innovative educational programs, spiritual practices and challenging courses presented in the Sabbatical & Certificate programs in Creation Spirituality here at the University of Creation Spirituality (UCS) are designed to engage students in serious academic study of the new cosmology, the creation tradition, and post-modern questions and values. These, in addition to experiential processes, value body/mind/spirit modes of learning, self-direction, service to the community, compassion and a reverence for all creation. The Certificate Program requires 28 credits of study in one of two tracks. One is a full-time program which can be completed in nine months and the other a weekend program (Weekend of the Spirit WOTS) which allow students to complete the Certificate in two years of weekend courses. Sabbatical students ordinarily complete 14-16 credits of study in one semester of the nine month program or two semesters of WOTS. Students can begin their course of study in either the Fall or Spring semester. (Beginning dates are September and February respectively.)

Art-as-Meditation is the primary form of prayer in the creation-centered tradition. Ritual itself is a practice of art-as-meditation.
