Authorship Education: Architecting the Future of Lifelong Learning
Authorship Education is a skill based philosophy, which grew from seeing a collective need around the world. In their international workings, Sir Clyde Rivers and Prof. Michal P. Pitzl have experienced firsthand a need for change in societies of the world.
Education is one of the most powerful influences on the earth. Education “architects the future.” Authorship Education says that every life is valuable and every human being is created with a skill and a philosophy. It reaches outside traditional norms and runs on the understanding that each person’s skill and philosophy has the potential to solve a problem in this world.
Prof. Rivers and Prof. Pitzl have discovered influential people who have made their world a better place by nontraditional means. They have spotlighted such people in Authorship Education as worthy of receiving Honorary Doctorate degrees for their skills and being “Searchers” of a new philosophy. These qualities make Authorship Education a system that will carry on from generation to generation, architecting a better future.

Chris and Carol Green Appointed to Administrative Leadership at UGCSI

UGCSI ---- H.E. Sir Clyde Rivers and Professor Michal Pitzl have announced the appointment of Chris and Carol Green as Professors of Seracher Education and Administrative Leadership at United Graduate College and Seminary International (UGCSI). This couple will be positioned to lead the Professional Development of UGCSI's Global Consortium of Searcher Professors.
UGCSI is a private, fully accredited Christian College and Seminary that provides its students an e-learning education model for their ministry training. With excellent Biblical programs, as well as accelerated ministry degree programs, it offers a truly practical, well-rounded international ministry education experience.
As affiliate members and International Statesmen with iChange Nations™, Chris and Carol Green have partnered with UGCSI to provide an accelerated, ministry-accredited life coaching certification program. Their collaborative purpose and mission has been, to offer leaders, working in under-served communities, high-quality tools that empower and equip them to be more effective in their humanitarian efforts.
After successfully establishing this International Leadership Life Coaching Program in the United States, the Greens were extended this prestigious invitation from the UGCSI Chief Chancellor and Chancellor, who had been following their progress and success.
"The Greens have been with us for a while," says Chief Chancellor Clyde Rivers. "They have worked in obscurity and just been faithful in helping us build a culture of excellence and honor."
Chris and Carol Green received formal Christian Leadership Training (a 5-year school of ministry) from Dr. Raphael Green (D.Ed.Min) who founded the Metro Christian Discipleship Academy in Saint Louis, Missouri; earning licenses and ordinations as ministers in May of 1991. To further enhance his education, Chris completed two business certification programs at the University of Missouri-St. Louis’ School of Professional and Continuing Studies. They both completed a lay-counseling certificate program from the American Association of Christian Counselors.
They continued to expand and grow in their professional development through their enrollment in United Graduate College and Seminary International (UGCSI), where they received Bachelors and Masters degrees in Christian Leadership, as well as certification as master life coaches through its Colleges of Christian Education and Divinity: Educational Department.
After completing the Master Life Coaching program, they took their certifications and began volunteering their coaching skills in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania's under-served communities, and it wasn't long before local organizations began to recognize and acknowledge the high-quality work that was being invested.
In 2018, Chris and Carol Green introduced their ground-breaking CARE-Readiness Training and Certification for Providers, Mentors and Coaches. Over the course of two years, they were able to certify nearly 80 Life Coaches, which meant the positive impact of their high-quality, life-transforming program was being duplicated and distributed.
"The timing is perfect for bringing the Greens into UGCSI as Professors," explains Chancellor Michal Pitzl. "Due to the covid-19 outbreak, we're in reset mode just like the rest of the world, but when we return, we have a special opportunity to equip and empower the leaders that both work in our school, as well as the leaders from all over Eastern Africa and the world, who come to us for ministry training. We're looking to PROFESSORS Chris and Carol Green to help us build a Global Leadership Professional Development Program."
As the world's leading producers of CARE-Ready Life Coaches™, Chris and Carol Green have been teaching and training community, government and education leaders, human service organizers, business visionaries, and neighborhood dreamers how to be much more effective by embracing the principles of CARE (Compassionate Accountability with Respect and Empathy) in their professional and personal lives. They LISTEN to people, LIFT people and LAUNCH people. Then they equip and empower them to do the same for others.
Many coaching, mentoring and community outreach programs employ what is known as a "deficit model" of working with people. That's where you focus on the problems (deficits) of a person, and then apply a set of pre-determined, cookie cutter steps and treatments to address their issues. The deficit-based model is what many well-meaning Helpers use, but it rarely works long-term, leaving Helpers wondering why their clients fail to break the cycles of addiction and recidivism.
However, their CARE-Ready Life Coach Training™ mirrors the principles found in the proven, Best Practice strategies of Strength-based, Solution-focused models. CARE-Ready life coaches are trained to connect with people in order to build a relationship/ partnership that empowers the client; thus allowing the client to discover the solutions that will work best for them.
While many coaching programs focus on how to target potential high-paying affluent clients, and high-paying speaking opportunities, the Greens train, equip and empower Care-Ready Providers and Coaches™, who are willing to take on the most often overlooked people of society; those who live in under-served communities, who can least afford, but benefit the most from professional guidance.
"We're very excited that the Greens accepted our invitation and this appointment," Pitzl concluded. "They will bring another level of expertise and experience to our overall global mission."
Chris and Carol Green are also recipients of honorary doctorates in Christian Leadership (Chris) and Humanities (Carol); as well as honorary doctorates in Society and Human Rights (both). They are currently candidates in the UGCSI Searcherdemic doctoral program.

UGCSI Vice Chancellor Named 2020 Africa Civility Educator of the Year
Prof. Mateus Mutola, Vice Chancellor of Online Academics at United Graduate College and Seminary International was named 2020 Africa Civility Educator of the Year, as one of IChange Nations' World Civility Icon Winners.
Professor Multola responded:
"I had the privilege to be honored as the 2020 Africa Civility Educator of the Year.
Though I did not see it coming, I received the award with gladness of heart. I was also challenged and catapulted to continue pursuing my life assignment of building people and changing destinies around the world.
Thus, as the 2020 Africa Civility Educator, I am creating a global initiative called the World Changers Initiative in order to promote Civility, Honor and Peace in Africa and the world.
I am also pioneering the first ever Africa Civility Show webcast on the Africa Civility TV. This is a platform for gathering hundreds of thoughtful and iconoclastic Global Leaders, Influencers, Humanitarians and Doers from around the world who share a common interest in practical solutions for sustainable development of Africa through Civility, Changeology, EduSophia and Geniusology. Through this platform, I expect to help reshape the way the world thinks about and looks at Africa, and rebuild her confidence in herself until she becomes the Oasis of the World.
This award has ignited in me an avid passion to continue work with different governments, educational institutions, religious and non-religious organizations, cultures, demographics, and individuals to construct an educational system that serves local needs by first and foremost helping individuals awaken to the genius in them.
I strongly assert that every human being is born a genius. This awakening is blessing humanity and making the world a better place to live in; for humanity will awaken to the realization that every human being is a solution to, at least, one problem."
