Video summary
The video provides a comprehensive guide on how to access and navigate the e-learning platform for APC Bible College, specifically designed for fall semesters in 2026. Users are instructed to visit the official URL, register with their full name and a distinct public username along with a secure password, and then sign in to view an initially empty dashboard. Once logged in, students can explore various theological programs ranging from one-year certificates to three-year bachelor's degrees by browsing the courses page. The interface allows users to switch themes for better visibility and offers clear navigation tools where course codes starting with specific digits indicate whether a module belongs to the first, second, or third year of study.
To successfully enroll in any subject, students must click on "Learn More" to watch an introductory video describing the curriculum before clicking "Enroll Now," which adds the course to their dashboard. Inside each classroom, learners can access lecture videos and announcements within a section similar to Google Classroom, while using the progress tracker to monitor completion percentages daily against the semester deadline of November 28th. The platform enforces strict academic standards where passing requires a score above 70%, with specific instructions that next sections are locked until previous videos are watched in full without skipping, and all non-graded knowledge checks must be completed before advancing further into the course material.
Beyond standard coursework, new students are strongly encouraged to complete three mandatory foundational components: orientation week, foundation courses, and mentoring hour sessions which are posted weekly for Thursday viewing. The platform also features a discussion page where self-paced learners can introduce themselves or ask questions in their own posts rather than contacting instructors directly via email, as the system is designed for independent study with faculty support available through these forums. Additionally, students have access to downloadable notes and soft copies of materials within each course module, ensuring they possess all necessary resources even if internet connectivity fluctuates during video playback.
Finally, the transcript addresses common technical challenges such as account lockouts due to repeated failed login attempts or videos that fail to progress, offering solutions like resetting passwords via email recovery links. It is explicitly stated that joining mid-semester is permitted only for those who can finish all assessments before the fixed end date; otherwise, students must retake the entire course in the following semester because no academic progress is saved between terms. The video concludes by emphasizing that adhering to these guidelines regarding deadlines, full video viewing requirements, and mandatory foundation modules will ensure a smooth learning experience without encountering unnecessary obstacles or needing to restart courses later.

Okay, I hope you are able to see my
screen. So, the first thing we need to
do is go to the Google URL section and
you can type or copy and paste
e-learning.apcbiblecollege.org.
Once you type that in, just press enter.
The very first thing you will see here
is our interface. This is what it looks
like and if you want to explore, you can
just come here to the courses page. You
will be able to see the full semester
courses like the one-year, two-year, and
three-year programs and all of them are
for the fall semesters. You will also be
able to see the programs and degrees.
For one year, we call it the certificate
in theology. For two years, it is the
diploma in theology and three years is
for the bachelor's in theology. Okay,
the very first thing we need to do once
we come to this page is register. So,
this is how it displays. Once you come
to this page, you can just put in your
name and your Gmail account. The first
thing it will ask for is your full name.
The second is your email or public
username. You can put whatever you would
like to keep as your public username.
Make sure that when you provide the
public username, it does not match your
full name. Next, you can create a
password. Once you create the password,
you need to remember it throughout the
course so that whenever you log out, you
can use this public username and
password to get back in. I have already
done this. Once you create an account,
the next step we need to do is sign in.
So again, I will just put in my user ID
and the password. Yeah, once this is
done, this is what it looks like. The
dashboard is currently empty. There is
nothing there. You will be able to see
my courses and looking for a new
challenge. To find our courses and
modules, just explore the courses. You
can come to this section and simply
explore it. Once we come here, let's
switch to a slightly brighter theme.
Yeah, hopefully this is fine. So, these
are the courses that you will be able to
see. The first year starts with BC101,
which is Ministers Foundation up to
BC116,
which is Lifestyle Evangelism. Now, you
may have a question like, how can I
identify which ones are my courses? The
very first thing you can look for is
BC1. If it starts with the digit one,
then it is a first year course. If you
can see like 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 in the
first year for one semester, you will
have exactly eight modules and that is
from 101 to 116.
This is how you can count or identify
your courses. BC101 to 116. Courses
starting with BC two digit means they
are for the second year and if they
start with BC three digit, that means
the third year. That is how you will be
able to navigate and identify your
courses.
Now, to complete the enrollment, all you
have to do is click learn more. Once you
click learn more, this dashboard will
appear. Here you will be able to see a
short description video about what the
course covers. You can just watch it and
see what the course is about. The next
step is simply clicking enroll now. Once
you enroll, the course is successfully
added to your dashboard. So, let us do
one more. Just go back or find a course
again. I would like to do BC102.
Click learn more. If you would like to
watch the description video again, you
can do that and then just click enroll
now. This is how it will be added to
your dashboard. If you are a first year
student, we would like to request that
you complete the eight modules. This is
how it is going to be. One more thing we
would like to Okay, we can come back to
that a little later. So now, this is how
Old Testament Survey is going to look.
You can begin your class from here. Just
click begin your course. Click that and
it will bring you directly to your
classroom. This is your dashboard here.
Now you can see there are a bunch of
things being displayed. Let me just take
you through them one by one. The first
is the course section. The course
section is where you will be able to see
all the course updates, your lecture
videos, and your announcements will pop
up here. If you look now, there is
nothing, but once the class starts, you
will be able to see all of the content.
Right now, there are no lecture videos.
They have only posted the welcome notes,
the course overview, and so on. But
after the class starts, you will be able
to see all the lecture videos. This is
similar to how we have done things with
Google Classroom. I hope this is clear.
Now, the next section is progress. The
progress section allows you to navigate
or track how much you have completed or
how far along you are. You can view your
course completion here and once you
start doing your courses, this 0% will
increase. We would like to encourage you
to check this on a daily basis so that
you will know exactly where you are and
how you can finish before the due date.
So, this is your progress. Another very
important and crucial part is the
grades. To pass the exam, just a minute,
not this one. I need to go to Yeah, to
pass the exam, you have to get more than
70%. That is the passing score. If you
look here, if you are getting below 71,
it means you fail, but 71 and above
means you will successfully pass. We
encourage you to please check this
section to stay informed. This
information is also given in the books,
but that might not always be updated, so
we request that you come here and check.
For all courses, the passing grade is 70
or above. Make sure to get at least a 71
and you will be eligible for the next
semester. I hope this is clear. You can
also check here. Once you click this red
button, you can get an overview of the
grade range for this course. Next to
that, we have the dates. It is basically
our timeline. We started our courses on
Monday. Today is August 7th and the end
date is Saturday, November 28th. Again,
as we stated before the due date, you
need to finish all of your modules, all
the assessments, and the lecture videos.
If you are not able to finish, you may
have to take the entire course from the
very beginning. So, that is about the
dates and the discussion page. If you
come to the discussion page as an
e-learning student, you may have a
question like, "How can I ask
questions?" For on-campus and online
students, we have the ability to
directly ask the faculty or the
instructor. But for e-learning, as it is
a self-paced study, we have created the
discussion page. If you come to the
discussion page, you will be able to see
this section called my posts. To add
post, you can just come here and So, as
of now, these are the notes that have
been provided by our faculty and it says
to introduce yourself. You can do that
here. Enter your name and write
something like, "Hi." If you would like
to ask any questions, you can just type
them here and submit them. Our faculty
will respond to you. If you click all
posts, you will be able to see all the
posts and what the other students are
posting. But if you just click my posts,
you will only see your own posts. This
section is for learner activities. These
are the two main section you have to
look into and use. If you have any
questions, we request that you please
come here and post them and the faculty
will respond to you. The wiki section is
not necessary for now. One more thing,
as e-learning students, you might have a
question like, "How can I get my notes?"
This is how you will be able to get your
notes. The faculty has already posted
and updated all the notes. Once you come
to a section, like fulfilling God's
purpose for your life, this is the note
and you can download it. If you come
here, you can simply download it. Like
receiving God's guidance and the code of
honor. This is how it works and you can
download all your notes from here in a
soft copy format. Okay, before moving
forward, I would like to quickly check
if everything is okay. Just a minute.
Yeah, is everything all right for the
online students? Okay, great. Thank you.
So, we are done with this part. Next,
what we are going to do is you can
simply enroll. As I demonstrated
earlier, you can do that easily. I hope
this is clear. For praise and worship,
click learn more, then enroll. And see,
this is how it will be added to your
dashboard, so you can access it. Okay,
and another thing is the foundation
section. What we request is, if you have
enrolled, please complete this as it is
common for all students. This includes
the foundation, the mentoring hour, and
also our orientation week. For those who
have joined, registered, or are yet to
register, we would like to strongly
request that you please join the
foundation courses and also the
mentoring hour. As Pastor Nancy stated,
we will have the mentoring hour every
Thursday. What happens is, once the
mentoring hour is done, we post it
online as well. Once you come here, you
will be able to see all the mentoring
hour sessions. If you look here, we have
the data for the fall 2026 weekly
mentoring hour videos. If you come here,
you will see all the lecture videos. So,
for this semester as well, we will be
posting all the mentoring hour videos
and this is how you will be able to
access them. Okay, so one is the
mentoring hour and the second is the
foundation. Please do enroll for this as
well. The content is already there and
has been posted. You just have to log in
and access it. The last, very important
section is orientation week. Make sure
if you are new, or even if you are
already registered and part of
e-learning, we request that you please
go through it. Just click learn more and
enroll in it. Here it is. All the
sessions are being posted here. You can
just come and utilize them. Yeah. So,
yeah, that is all about it. The
orientation week, the foundations, and
the mentoring hour are common for
everybody. So, you can just complete
them alongside your regular courses.
There is one more thing that students
ask about. As they are working through
the course, they face some challenges. I
will also take you through this. As
students do their courses, we have some
frequently asked questions. Number one
is account login issues. Sometimes
people are unable to log in, or their
account gets locked. This happens when
we try several times with the wrong
password. What happens is that it
temporarily blocks the server, and you
may not be able to access your account
for a while. In that case, you simply
need to reset the password. To reset the
password, you can just click forgot
password, just like you do for other
websites, and enter your registered
email address to recover it. Once you
initiate the recovery, an email will go
to your registered Gmail account, where
you can create a new password. After
that, you will be able to access it
again. Number two, the video is not
progressing, and I cannot Why is the
next section locked? What happens is
that we set prerequisites for all the
videos. To go to the next video, you
must completely watch the current video.
You have to watch all the videos
completely without skipping. If you skip
through the video and try to jump to the
next section, it will not allow you
because we have set it up that way. Make
sure you are watching the videos fully
from the beginning to the end. If you do
this, you won't have any other issues or
challenges. We just wanted to let you
know about this. Additionally, there
will be knowledge checks. Basically,
these are non-graded, but you just need
to complete all the knowledge checks to
be able to move forward. If you follow
these small rules, you won't have any
issues as you go along. Once you finish
watching the videos, it will
automatically take you to the next
lecture video. Now, regarding midterm
assessment enrollment, some of you may
ask, "Can I join the e-learning portal
mid-semester?" Yes, you can join, but
remember we have fixed start and end
dates. To earn your certificate, you
must complete all your lecture videos,
quizzes, and assessments before the
deadline. For example, if our due date
is November 26th or 28th, you need to
finish all requirements before then to
get your certificate. That is absolutely
fine. Next is missing the course
completion deadline. What if I cannot
finish the course before the semester
ends? There is no other option. If you
cannot finish it, you will have to
retake the course in the next semester.
Right now, it is fall 2026. The next one
is fall 2027. There is no other option.
If you miss the deadline, you have to
retake it because progress is not saved
between semesters. We do not save it. It
starts at the beginning point and
finishes once the deadline is reached.
So, that is all about it. If you are
mindful of all of this, you will not
have any issues and you will be able to
complete everything successfully.
