“The jewel of community, the Sangha, is to be held equal to the Buddha and the Dharma. Indeed, the whole of the holy life is fulfilled through spiritual friendship.”


Buddha

Certificate In Buddhist Studies

 

Our Certificate of Buddhist Studies program offers a year-long, self-paced journey through the foundational teachings and practices of the Buddha. Divided into three engaging terms, this structured yet flexible program allows you to study at your own rhythm while deepening your understanding of Dharma principles, meditation, and mindful living. Whether you are new to Buddhist philosophy or seeking to strengthen your existing practice, each term builds upon the last to cultivate wisdom, compassion, and insight into the nature of mind and reality.


By completing the program, you’ll gain not only a comprehensive understanding of core Buddhist teachings but also practical tools for integrating them into daily life. The certificate reflects both personal growth and intellectual engagement — offering a meaningful credential for those wishing to guide others, teach, or simply live with greater awareness and peace. Participants benefit from guided study materials, reflective exercises, and a supportive learning environment that encourages inner transformation alongside academic exploration.


We offer a rolling term enrollment option and new terms begin on the 1st of each month. 


Rolling terms begin the first of each month.

Fee: $3000.00
