What is the goal of the Caribbean Theological Institute?
The goal of the Caribbean Theological Institute is to provide solid training in Bible and theology to men and women of God who will make a difference with a positive impact in the Caribbean and beyond. [2 Timothy 2:1-2 (NKJV): " 1 You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also."]
Are the degrees of the Caribbean Theological Institute recognized?
Our degrees are recognized within the French-speaking and international Christian community. The value of our degrees stems primarily from the excellence of our professors and the content of their courses, as well as the quality of our partners, who are well-established in the evangelical church community. Secondly, we adhere to the established CREDITS principle so that the credits we award for courses taken are recognized by other theological training institutes. Furthermore, in accordance with current criteria, we are taking steps to have our institute officially recognized as a private higher education training center by the Martinique Regional Education Authority.
Where do the professors at the Caribbean Theological Institute come from and what are their qualifications?
Our professors come from three different continents: Africa, America, and Europe. They all have many years of experience in ministry and most of them hold a doctorate or master's degree, having already taught or still teaching at other theological institutes.
What degrees are awarded by the Caribbean Theological Institute?
At present, the Caribbean Theological Institute offers everyone the opportunity to obtain a certificate in theology, a bachelor's degree, or a master's degree in Bible and theology. In the future, we hope to also offer the opportunity to obtain a doctorate.
How much does it cost to attend classes at the Caribbean Theological Institute?
For details and explanations, see the page Tuition Fees.
Can we follow the courses in person or remotely?
For better learning and a richer experience, we favor and encourage attending classes in person. However, we also offer the option of taking classes remotely for those who, for one reason or another, are unable to travel.
Is training at the Caribbean Theological Institute reserved only for pastors or aspiring pastors?
Our training is useful for anyone who wants to serve the Lord in any ministry. Anyone who loves the Lord and desires to know His Word better in order to serve Him more effectively will benefit from this training.
Can we follow the courses as a free auditor?
The courses are intended not only for those who want to obtain a diploma, but also for those who want to grow and strengthen their faith in the Word of God.
Since I am not free during the week, can I take the classes at another time?
For those who work or minister during the week, there is the option of attending Saturday classes. The training process, in this case, will of course be much longer if you want to obtain a certificate or diploma.
Having already taken some Bible and theology courses through another educational institution, can these courses be counted toward my degree at CTI?
Some course credits are transferable after review and approval by the Faculty Council.
What are the requirements for taking the courses?
