Our courses
Our courses are:
Rigorous: in-depth theological education and ministry formation
Relational: we learn and grow together in community
Real-life: what we learn can be applied to our context and mission today
How it works?
Leadership and Ministerial training
Looking to Train for Ministry?
We offer a thorough, three-year ministry formation programme, not just for future Baptist ministers but for those called to leadership in other churches too. Our hub model means students can be part of a faith-filled community closer to home, with Hubs currently in Bristol, Exeter and London.
Our College Community
We love our eclectic community, full of people with different opinions, upbringings, and goals. It’s this community that gives the College its unique flavour, and it’s this community that means students come for one year and stay for seven!

Academic Courses
Study theology at a level that suits you:
Our academic courses range from Level 4 to Research and can be studied full- or part-time, with flexible options often available.
Learning Environment
Our undergraduate and taught postgraduate courses are validated by Durham University and are delivered in partnership with Trinity College, Bristol, an evangelical Anglican college nearby.
This creates an eclectic and varied learning environment, with access to more tutors and a range of subjects.
“The situation back home requires for me to be with my family in India. This sort of arrangement, where I can be based in India and still benefit from the quality of the programme that’s being offered - I’m pleased with how I am faring with it.”
- Revd Francis Mathew, Previous Doctoral Research Student
Easy Access
We believe in the benefits of life-long learning and creating the space for anyone to lean into their desire to know God more and seek his purpose for their life.
