The most effective educational model that we have seen within Seventh-day Adventism was perhaps Madison College. This type of education enabled its students to be the most effective foreign as well as domestic missionaries. Why?

Madison 2.0

Because this model of education was the first one that offered a wholistic education that truly prepared students to be entrepreneurial ministry leaders or self-supporting missionaries as they used to call it. Ellen G. White declared that if other Adventist schools would follow this model, “we as a people would be a spectacle to the world, to angels, and to men….” Ellen G White, Pamphlet 119: “An Appeal for the Madison School”, p. 2

We want to see that happen at Hartland. Madison 2.0 is Hartland’s initiative to implement the genius educational model from Madison College in a 21 st century setting.

Hartland College is in the process of applying for accreditation. (It’s not accredited yet.) This has not been an issue for many of our graduates.

We have good relationships with accredited universities such as Weimar, Southern, Andrews, and many others.

Is accreditation a good thing?
