    International Fellowship of Biblical Counselors (IFBC) is an organization that is committed to equipping and strengthening believers to the Biblical perspective in the process of counseling. The distinctive of IFBC is that instead of observing the practice and technique of counseling through the lens of theoretical and theological systems, we seek to understand the person, counseling them in word and conduct from an exegetical/expositional approach to the counseling process.

This certificate is open to teaching elders/pastors, youth leaders/workers, lay leaders who desire to know the basic skills of counseling or even professionals who are licensed and desire to know how to incorporate the Biblical philosophy in their counseling practice and process.
