Statement of Purpose and Mission Statement

The College of Metaphysical Studies (CMS), located in Clearwater, Florida, has been a leader in metaphysical and spiritual education since 1986. CMS was formed after extensive evaluation of the educational needs of the Metaphysical, New Age, New Thought, Neo-Pagan and modern spiritual communities.

The primary purpose of CMS is to train and educate prospective leaders for metaphysical minis-tries and schools through Distant-Learning or On-campus Training. Those persons not planning to become metaphysical practitioners, but who only wish to pursue a solid self-improvement program and acquire an excellent education in metaphysics and the spiritual sciences, are also encouraged to attend in a degree or non-degree status.

We are authorized by the Commission for Independent Education, Independent Colleges and Universities, Non-Secular Division, Florida Department of Education to operate as a private, non-secular college and to issue Associate, Bachelor, Master and Doctorate Degrees in meta-physics, religion, spiritual awareness, spiritual and holistic healing, esoteric studies, parapsy-chology, and the entire allied metaphysical field. CMS trains and certifies ministers, spiritual and holistic healers, teachers, pastoral counselors, mediums, intuitive practitioners, past-life re-gression facilitators and administrators. Certification is by the New Awareness Ministries, Inter-national (NAMI).

Educational Goals

  1. To provide adult education programs for persons drawn to the Metaphysical, New Thought movements seeking individual spiritual growth.

  2. To educate for the purpose of developing leadership within the movements, including licensed and/or ordained ministers, pastoral counselors, teachers, healing and intuitive practitioners, and administrative personnel.

  3. To provide continuing postgraduate education both for those in leadership in the movement and for those seeking programs of lifelong learning.

  4. To engage in research and provide a point of contact with developments in the wider educational community.
