In a historical first, Professor Shakuntala Rose Reddy, Professor Carol Green and Professor Christopher Green were each conferred a UGCSI exclusive non-governmental, life achievement, competency-based, ministry degree: Doctorate of Searcherdemics (DSe) in an online ceremony that was held during the United Graduate College and Seminary International's annual Searcher Education Summit, hosted by its Chancellor Michal P. Pitzl and Chief Chancellor, HRH, H.E. Dr. Clyde Rivers.
The very first Doctorate of Searcherdemics recipient was
Professor Shakuntala Rose Reddy, from Richards Bay, Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa,
who initiated a Philosophy of KINDNESS in the education curriculum of the
primary school in her community. Her evidence and results proved that she was more than worthy of a doctorate.
The next recipients were Professors Christopher and Carol Green, from Pennsylvania, USA, who received their doctorates because they were able to successfully implement, teach, duplicate and
defend their two Life Skills Philosophies: 'You Are Success in Process' which they utilize in their Professional Development training, and in 'CARE-Readiness', which has been embraced in several industries (education, human and social services, and counseling), outreach organizations, businesses and ministries across the
United States.
"Congratulations to our three excellent
UGCSI leaders who have been building and spreading their Searcherdemic
Philosophies for nearly a decade," stated Chancellor Pitzl, "It was
determined that they should be the first recipients in the world to ever be bestowed
this newly established doctorate from our institution."
Searcherdemics is an education discipline and model in which students do much more than academically study, research, write papers and pass exams. They become their own case studies and real-world research through the implementation of their philosophies, innovations and ideas. This education ideology is founded on the principle that the Holy Spirit of God is the ultimate Educator. Therefore, students must search out the Godly knowledge and wisdom that will help them produce successful evidence-based results.
This competency-based ministry degree is awarded upon the candidate's demonstrated ability to successfully implement and document their progression and success; and then teach, duplicate, and defend their philosophy before the Chancellor and Chief Chancellor of UGCSI.
This fresh instructional and teaching paradigm provides a new educational opportunity for innovative minds; the people who often don't score well in standardized educational systems because they don't have standardized minds.
Before conferring this credential upon the three Professors, Chancellor Michal P. Pitzl assured the online audience that the UGCSI academic standards require its Searcherdemic Doctoral Program to be:
1.) Bible based,
2.) Rigorous enough for the degree, and
3.) Practical
"Our students are required to do the work of their philosophy (not just reading books, doing research, and writing papers). They actually have gone out into the world, worked with people, and they’ve tested their philosophy in the real world, in real time; and they have documented their evidence and results.”
Chancellor Pitzl is the founder and creator of the Searcherdemic Education model which has the potential to acknowledge and credential millions of people around the world, whose ideas and visions would have been lost, simply because they don't have the means or opportunities to navigate through the traditional educational matriculation process.
Searcherdemics has become a new avenue for the masterful innovators who, most likely, would never have earned college degrees, even though they completely change the world by impacting the industries, disciplines, and communities in which they serve. Traditionally, the most they could ever hope for was an honorary degree, a certificate or plaque that merely acknowledged them for their revolutionary ideas.
Searcherdemics says they should receive an actual earned educational credential for their society-impacting life achievements that were accomplished due to their dedication, hard work, perseverance, and proven, evidence-based success.
