Announcing an Innovative Education Partnership with Elim Christian Services

Jul 14, 2025

Trinity Christian College is pleased to announce that it has partnered with Elim Christian Services to launch innovative and mutually beneficial Education programs that create a pipeline of employment at Elim and further Trinity’s commitment to alleviating loan debt and providing meaningful work experiences for students, through partnership with neighbors.

The Elim-sponsored degree programs for traditional and adult undergraduate students will provide financial sponsorship for two years of a student’s full-time enrollment at Trinity preceding graduation. Upon graduation, program students will commit to three years of full-time employment at Elim as a teacher.

These sponsored degree programs build upon Trinity and Elim’s tradition of collaboration. Elim supports children and adults with disabilities in leading their fullest lives. Trinity has joined that mission with a scholarship for Elim employees and by developing an accessible program of study for Elim employees called the Bloom program.
