Innovative Education Model Continues to Produce Evidence and Results

This year the Human Equity Value Institute (HEVIS), located in Trinidad and Tobago and an affiliate of United Graduate College and Seminary International, began its courses with another round of student participants. The students engaged in six months of studying the knowledge base tool of Human Equity Value (HEV) and graduated in May 2022.



Professor Glendon Rudder, founder and creator of the Human Equity Value philosophy and Institute stated, “Every class and every session was new and presented a uniqueness that was unlike the other. The students were highly involved and interactive in a major way as they literally added value to the course itself and to the content of the HEV Searcherdemic education model.”


Students learned the foundations of HEV, that Human Equity Value is the Recognition, Consideration, Protection and Procurement of Human Value and about each person’s Equity Entitlement. It is interesting to note that this was being done against the backdrop of certain issues taking place in the country's government in terms of their relations to society. As such, students of HEVIS were given an assignment to write a paper on a societal or national issue and their own solution. Students were then tasked with implementing the principle of Human Equity Value to the issue and to report on the results that it would bring. Papers were done on the economy, politics, government elections, child abuse and other topics affecting the society at large. Students surpassed expectations.


In one assignment, a student chose to write on the elections of the sister Island of the nation, which have been lobbying for more autonomy and even cessation as they felt that the central government in Trinidad was not doing enough. She applied HEV saying, "If Human Equity Value (HEV) was part of the Central Government's policies it will eliminate all the issues presented by the sister Isle." With the implementation of a HEV policy they will be afforded training needed to become profitable to ensure sustainability within the island. 


Another HEVIS student stated, "Just over three years ago, the Company for which I worked, went through a major upheaval, in that persons were retrenched. The tenets of Human Equity Value (HEV) Recognition, Consideration, Protection and Procurement were totally ignored in the way management went about their actions. There was no recognition of persons' feelings and rights. Imagine persons were issued with retrenchment letters mere hours before the close of business; advising them not to report for work the next day...A friend of mine who was a supervisor and gave the company over thirty years of service, said he stood in the middle of the office and cried, when unknowingly, he came to work the next day and was locked out of the system. This is when he knew he was let go. Their actions completely destroyed any place value employees may have felt."


Student quote: Human Equity Value is also a symbiotic relationship between employee and employer. 


Student quote: How one values that of another creates Human Equity Value (HEV). In addition to this, HEV puts the human value in focus, giving the other the equity deserved. 


Student quote: In short, the implementation of Human Equity Value (HEV) as a public policy would go a long way in improving the industrial climate in the country.

Chris and Carol Green Named Professors, Vice Chancellors of Administrative Leadership and Professional Development






Date: June 2020 (UGCSI) ----Professor Clyde Rivers and Professor Michal Pitzl have announced the appointment of Chris and Carol Green as the new Professors and Vice Chancellors of Administrative Leadership at United Graduate College and Seminary International (UGCSI). This couple will be positioned to lead the Professional Development of the school's global team of educators and instructors.

UGCSI is a private, fully accredited Christian College and Seminary that encourages students to consider an e-learning education model for their ministry training. With excellent biblical programs, as well as accelerated ministry degree programs anchored by a unique staff of educators from all over the world, UGCSI offers a truly practical, well-rounded international ministry education experience.

As affiliate members and International Statesmen with iChange Nations™, Chris and Carol Green have partnered with UGCSI since 2017 to offer an accelerated, ministry-accredited life coaching certification program. Their collaborative purpose and mission has been, to offer leaders, working in under-served communities, high-quality tools that empower and equip them to be more effective in their humanitarian efforts.

After successfully establishing this International Leadership Life Coaching Program in the United States, the Greens were extended this prestigious invitation from the UGCSI Chief Chancellor and Chancellor, who had been following their progress and success.

"The Greens have been with us for a while," says Chief Chancellor Clyde Rivers. "They have worked in obscurity and just been faithful in helping us build a culture of excellence and honor."

Chris and Carol Green received formal Christian Leadership Training (a 5-year school of ministry) from Dr. Raphael Green (D.Ed.Min) who founded the Metro Christian Discipleship Academy in Saint Louis, Missouri; earning licenses and ordinations as ministers in May of 1991. To further enhance his education, Chris completed two business certification programs at the University of Missouri-St. Louis’ School of Professional and Continuing Studies. They both completed a lay-counseling certificate program from the American Association of Christian Counselors.

They continued to expand and grow in their professional development through their enrollment in United Graduate College and Seminary International (UGCSI), where they earned Bachelors and Masters degrees in Christian Leadership, as well as certification as master life coaches through its College of Divinity: Educational Department.

After completing the Master Life Coaching program, they took their certifications and began volunteering their coaching skills in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania's under-served communities, and it wasn't long before local organizations began to recognize and acknowledge the high-quality work that was being invested.

In 2018, Chris and Carol Green introduced their ground-breaking CARE-Readiness Training and Certification for Providers, Mentors and Coaches. Over the course of two years, they were able to certify nearly 80 Life Coaches, which meant the positive impact of their high-quality, life-transforming program was being duplicated and distributed.

"The timing is perfect for bringing the Greens into UGCSI as Vice Chancellors and Professors," explains Chancellor Michal Pitzl. "Due to the covid-19 outbreak, we're in reset mode just like the rest of the world, but when we return, we have a special opportunity to equip and empower the leaders that both work in our school, as well as the leaders from all over Central Africa and the world, who come to us for ministry training. We're looking to PROFESSORS Chris and Carol Green to help us build a Global Leadership Professional Development Program."

As the world's leading producers of CARE-Ready Life Coaches™, Chris and Carol Green have been teaching and training community, government and education leaders, human service organizers, business visionaries, and neighborhood dreamers how to be much more effective by embracing the principles of CARE (Compassionate Accountability with Respect and Empathy) in their professional and personal lives. They LISTEN to people, LIFT people and LAUNCH people. Then they equip and empower them to do the same for others.

Many coaching, mentoring and community outreach programs employ what is known as a "deficit model" of working with people. That's where you focus on the problems (deficits) of a person, and then apply a set of pre-determined, cookie cutter steps and treatments to address their issues. The deficit-based model is what many well-meaning Helpers use, but it rarely works long-term, leaving Helpers wondering why their clients fail to break the cycles of addiction and recidivism.

However, their CARE-Ready Life Coach Training™ mirrors the principles found in the proven, Best Practice strategies of Strength-based, Solution-focused models. CARE-Ready life coaches are trained to connect with people in order to build a relationship/ partnership that empowers the client; thus allowing the client to discover the solutions that will work best for them.

While many coaching programs focus on how to target potential high-paying affluent clients, and high-paying speaking opportunities, the Greens train, equip and empower Care-Ready Providers and Coaches™, who are willing to take on the most often overlooked people of society; those who live in under-served communities, who can least afford, but benefit the most from professional guidance.

"We're very excited that the Greens accepted our invitation and this appointment," Pitzl concluded. "They will bring another level of expertise and experience to our overall global mission."

Chris and Carol Green are also recipients of honorary doctorates in Christian Leadership (Chris) and Humanities (Carol); as well as honorary doctorates in Society and Human Rights (both). They are currently candidates in the UGCSI Christian Leadership doctoral program.
