As an institution affiliated with Africa Inland Mission, RVA has a dual mission: supporting current mission endeavors while nurturing the next generation of Christian leaders and ambassadors. Our vision is to see Christ-centered churches flourishing across Africa.

Operating on a trimester schedule, RVA’s academic year begins in August and concludes in July, with each term spanning approximately twelve weeks, followed by a one-month break.
