The Interdenominational Theological Center (ITC) is offering a Certificate Program of theological education for ministers and lay persons.  The courses are taught by seminary trained local instructors who use, as part of their class materials, video taped lectures by members of the ITC faculty.  More than fifty (50) sites have been established in the U.S., Canada, Japan and the Caribbean.
 
The Certificate in Theology Program is designed to provide an organized, structured series of courses for ministers and lay persons who want to improve their knowledge and preparedness for ministry.  Because this is a "Certificate" Program, all interested persons, with or without college degrees, are invited to participate.
 
The program consists of one (1) year of study during which a student may complete 8 courses.  Two or more courses will be offered during each term.  Each course lasts approximately one month and is offered in the order listed in the brochure.
 
Students who successfully complete the eight basic courses will be awarded a CERTIFICATE IN THEOLOGY by Interdenominational Theology Center during its annual commencement weekend.
