Pastoral Theology Diploma

The Pastoral Theology Diploma is designed for students called to full-time ministry who are seeking foundational Bible College education. The program satisfies the minimum formal education requirements set by the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada for ministerial ordination. It consists of 90 to 93 semester hours of coursework, made up of 33 hours in Bible and Theology, 36 hours in Practics (practical ministry skills), and 24 hours of General Studies, along with two semesters of Pastoral Internship. The internship placements give students supervised, practical exposure to church ministry alongside their academic coursework. Through the combination of theological and biblical foundations with hands-on internship experience, graduates gain an understanding of the methods and skills needed to succeed in pastoral ministry.
