Crossroads also offers a two year Associates of Arts (A.A.) degree in Biblical and Theological Studies and an accelerated degree program for adults.
The Compass Adult Studies Programs for degree completion, continuing education, or personal enrichment are designed to meet the requirements of working adults who are looking to return to school to gain the necessary knowledge, skills, and credentials for advancing their personal or professional ministries and career opportunities. The Compass program currently offers bachelor of science degrees in Counseling, Ministry, and Organizational Management, and certificates in Biblical Studies and Leadership. On-Campus and Online classes are offered as part of Compass Adult Studies, primarily in Bible/Theology and General Education. Crossroads' Compass program was certified in 2008 to offer exams-for-credit through the College Board CLEP and DSST/Dante programs, where candidates may test-out of areas of study for college credit.

Famous quotes containing the words organization, degree and/or programs:
“Democracy means the organization of society for the benefit and at the expense of everybody indiscriminately and not for the benefit of a privileged class.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“O, when degree is shaked,
Which is the ladder of all high designs,
The enterprise is sick. How could communities,
Degrees in schools, and brotherhoods in cities,
Peaceful commerce from dividable shores,
The primogeniture and due of birth,
Prerogative of age, crowns, scepters, laurels,
But by degree stand in authentic place?
Take but degree away, untune that string,
And hark what discord follows. Each thing meets
In mere oppugnancy.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“There is a delicate balance of putting yourself last and not being a doormat and thinking of yourself first and not coming off as selfish, arrogant, or bossy. We spend the majority of our lives attempting to perfect this balance. When we are successful, we have many close, healthy relationships. When we are unsuccessful, we suffer the natural consequences of damaged and sometimes broken relationships. Children are just beginning their journey on this important life lesson.”
—Cindy L. Teachey. “Building Lifelong Relationships—School Age Programs at Work,” Child Care Exchange (January 1994)
