Certificate Programs
Two certificate programs are offered by Berkshire for pastors, church leaders, and others wishing to grow in their faith and education to expand service to Christ and His Church.
A Leadership Development Certificate is designed for individuals who may not feel called to being a pastor, but do sense God guiding them into leadership. The program is designed to provide a grounding in the knowledge of Scripture while also building Christian leadership skills.
Individuals who are responding to God’s call into ministry as a pastor, will benefit from the Pastoral Studies Certificate. This program also provides foundational courses relative to Scripture as well as skills that are paramount for ministers in today’s communities as well as an internship with a designated mentor.

Distance Education Success
“Having completed the course, ‘Dealing with Church Conflict’ through eBerkshire, I have acquired a new appreciation for the pastorate in the 21st century. I highly recommend this class for both new and seasoned pastors.”
