The Pastoral Training Course
Course Information
The Pastoral Training Course is for men who are called to pastoral, preaching, and evangelistic ministry.
UK students can take the course in person, or through a combination of in person and remote study. Overseas students can take the whole course remotely, with livestream access to lectures.
We have accommodation on site for students, both ensuite study bedrooms and two bedroom flats for married couples and families.
Students who successfully complete the course can go on to take a part-time ThM degree through our partnership with PRTS*
