SLBI (Southeast Louisiana Bible Institute) is a reality. We began our first course on January 15, 2010. We concluded that course, Old Testament Survey, on January 30, 2010. For more information about the school please go to this link SLBI. Here are a couple of pictures of the first class.
The school operates under the certification and guidance of the World Bible Institute in McDonnough, GA. The director of WBI is brother J.J. Turner. We are conducting one class per month. Each class meets for a total of 16 hours and taught by an instructor with a minimum of a master’s degree. Our instructor for this class was David Hamrick out of Dallas, TX. We had 15 students in our first course. There are classes scheduled January – October for a total of 10 courses per year. After our second year the students will be eligible for an AA in Bible.
I am the Director/Dean for our school and now have a very real appreciation for those who have to deal with all the paper work, grading, scheduling and just plain “stuff” in an academic situation.
I encourage you all to check out World Bible Institute and consider setting up a school in your area. WBI’s desire is to have at least one congregation conducting a school in all the states. They do a great deal of their work overseas.

That looks neat. 15 students! That’s great.
I know Sunset does satellite schools as well.
