Pastoral Education

Pastoral Education

This program is designed to make pastoral leaders prepared for gospel-driven ministry, leadership in local churches and Christ-centered communities through an intensive week-long program which is offered three times a year for three years. All classes are conducted in or interpreted Khmer.

Its core curriculum includes the training with a strong emphasis on theological studies in Reformed tradition, with the key courses for pastoral leadership, practice, oversight and biblical government in the church, and essential biblical studies for preaching.  

This program is limited to male pastoral leaders in local churches and requires each student to complete the courses by earning 72 units for three years. Upon completion, he receives the diploma from WTCS.  The sequence of the courses to be taken depends on the initial session he takes and how the school arranges for each session.  

The one who has completed the program with a diploma is eligible to apply for admission to the BA in theology program of WTCS as a third-year student.

It is required of the student to attend all three sessions (Spring session in February, Summer session in June, and Fall session in August) for three years. Any student who takes a self-appointed break from any of the sessions will be dismissed from the program.

The student is to complete the required course works in three years. Any who is unable to complete the required course works for graduation in three years, is allowed to attend additional sessions. For such students WTCS provides the scholarship for room and board but no travel voucher.
