Union Christian College, Philippines

Union Christian College, Philippines is a higher education company based out of Philippines. This institution was the result of the merger of two schools namely, the Bible Training College (formerly the Women's Bible Training School) and the La Union Christian College (founded on November 17, 1946). The integration on April 26, 1960 gave birth to the corporate name, UNION CHRISTIAN COLLEGE.Union Christian College adheres to the philosophy that education is far more than just simply students with professional knowledge. It has to devote itself to deliver whole person education that fosters spiritual, intellectual, humane, social and physical development of learners, nurturing them to become confident, caring and God-fearing leaders who possess integrity, perseverance and a sense of responsibility in applying their knowledge in the service of others.Holistic education is grounded in the Biblical conviction that the human being is not divided into many fragmented parts such as the physical, spiritual, emotional, and relational but rather that the human is a single entity created by God in his own likeness. Therefore, it provides the student with the opportunity to envision life, experience life, and share life in an integrated way. It understands and teaches that each aspect of the human is integral to every other aspect if the human is truly to be whole as a human being.As a church institution of the United Church of Christ in the Philippines, Union Christian College highlights its mission that apart from enhancing competencies to develop students into individuals who can gauge their success through returns in their professions, it is more paramount to measure them by the extent to which they have become instruments of God in serving others.
