...
Dr. Stan DeKoven -(D.Min., Ph.D.), is the President of Vision International University, with which VCC Australia is associated.Dr. DeKoven has doctorates in psychology and theology and is the author of many of Vision's textbooks on Christian ministry and counselling.
VCC is a product of the joint vision of these two men.In the providence of God, they first met (in 1986) in San Diego, California, where they discovered a kinship of call and purpose in the Lord, and merged their two ministries to form VCC.
The story began more than a decade earlier.In 1974 Ken Chant started the Launceston College of Theology (in Launceston, Tasmania), and simultaneously, Joseph Bohac and Stan DeKoven (in San Diego, California) began Logos Institute, a local-church training program in practical ministry and counselling.
...
Four years later Dr. Chant moved his school to Sydney (Australia), while in the USA Logos Institute continued as a counselling ministry and training centre, and Dr. DeKoven pursued personal studies in psychology and theology.
...
Dr. Chant and his family returned to his native Australia in 1990, but prior to his leaving, Vision Bible College, under Dr. DeKoven's direction, had expanded to its present university status.
...
Dr DeKoven has provided the entrepreneurial drive for the global expansion of VCC, and Dr Chant has provided much of the teaching material (especially in theology).
