STANDARD INSTITUTE

The Standard Institute for Ministry Training International (Standard Institute) was founded in 1990 by Dr. Curtis S. Redmon to provide training in ministerial areas within the church. Our focus is to promote church growth by empowering and motivating church members to work with excellence and fulfill purpose.


Different from the traditional Bible school, the Standard Institute offers practical teachings based on biblical principles through an accelerated program that offers the information necessary for church leaders and workers to operate in and out of the church. The Standard Institute also provides resources to help in the continual development of different areas of ministry. These resources include conferences, books, and audio materials that support the teachings provided. The uniqueness of the Institute’s teachings has enabled the crossing of denominational lines, bringing people together locally and globally through The Reliability of the Bible Tours.


The Standard Institute extends internationally reaching countries in Europe, Central America (with an extension in the Republic of Panama), The Caribbean, and Africa. Our goal is to continue to expand to Australia and the continents of Asia, and South America.


The Standard Institute offers courses in various areas of ministry (download PDF).
