Salvation Army

The Salvation Army Partnership offers the opportunity for the women and men of the SA and their family members to pursue essential outdoor and adventure leadership and ministry training at a discounted rate while continuing to work in their current role.

Join this SA cohort of non-residential, flexible learning women and men in the M.A. Outdoor and Adventure Leadership program, and be part of a learning community of established and emerging camp leaders from across the world!

Receive up to 25% tuition discount.

Complete the course of study in three years.

Courses are offered in modular and hybrid formats, so degree requirements may be met through online work and week long in-person intensive sessions in close collaboration with the rest of the cohort and course instructors.

Why a "cohort" model?

A cohort is simply a group of people brought together for a common purpose. In a cohort model, students stay together as a group throughout the program, allowing them to develop deep life relationships with other leaders who are hungry to expand their biblical knowledge of Christ and His kingdom. The goal of a cohort is for the group to stay together as a learning community for the entire length of the program.

We also offer organizational cohorts – a group of 15 from one organization pursuing the degree together. To discuss setting up a cohort for your organization, please contact Suzanne MacDonald, Manager of Partnerships with Wheaton Graduate School.

Paying for your degree

You pay the tuition one course at a time as you complete the program. Payment plans are available and each course must be paid for before you can sign up for the next course.

In order to keep the pace of the M.A. in Outdoor Adventure Leadership program manageable for us busy camp people, we have chosen a part-time degree sequence of 8 credits each semester and no courses in the summer.
