Certified Church Growth Advisor
For leaders preparing to assess church-health and growth conditions and provide structured guidance using CGLI principles and tools.
CGLI certification pathways are intended for experienced leaders who want to apply the Institute’s frameworks responsibly in advisory, coaching, and training contexts.
The pathways are built around serious study, consistent application, ethical responsibility, and demonstrated readiness to carry CGLI’s approach with clarity and integrity.
Certification must protect the seriousness, consistency, ethics, and quality of the Institute’s methods. Detailed admission, assessment, supervision, and renewal requirements will be published only after formal approval for public release.
Each pathway serves a different form of responsible application while remaining grounded in CGLI’s institutional voice and standards.
