About Us

Originally located in Boston, Massachusetts, Berkshire operates through innovative partnerships with Eastern University in Saint Davids, Pennsylvania and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in South Hamilton and Boston, Massachusetts; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Jacksonville, Florida.

We also offer a variety of distance learning programs through eBerkshire as well as through Theological Education and Ministry Preparation by Extension (TEMPE). These include courses offered at local churches, independent study courses and seminars.

Thousands of pastors, missionaries, youth pastors, church school teachers and church workers have been trained and have served Christ throughout the world. We invite you to further your education with Berkshire's effective, innovative programs.
