PRACTICUM

What if you could customize your educational experience?

At SEU Jacksonville, you can.


We believe students need opportunities to apply the information they learn in the classroom in real-world contexts. Each student is encouraged to participate in a practicum experience that will complement his/her learning. In practicum, students will apply critical thinking and problem-solving skills to create solutions to problems that exist within their disciplines.


Students can complete a semester-long, hands-on practical experience (called “practicum”) up to eight (8) times during the life of a four-year degree. That means you can score up to 24 credit hours… AND experience… all for free. That’s over $7,500 in savings!!

SEU Jacksonville offers four in-house (“internal”) practicum options, which are supported by Celebration Church staff and teams. Additionally, students may choose an “external” practicum, which pairs the student with an approved partner church or business to complete their practicum hours.


Simply choose a degree program and pair it with a practicum experience to customize your education.
