Theological Education and Ministry Preparation by Extension (TEMPE)
Many of the TEMPE courses were created to address a number of issues faced by pastors and lay leaders in the church as well as courses that facilitate examination of the Bible in ways that will enrich a student’s life. TEMPE identified courses are primarily taken through a correspondence, self-directed model (however some are able to be registered for through eBerkshire). Students who register for TEMPE courses will be assigned an academic advisory/faculty member who will assist students in understanding course requirements as well as evaluate assignments, papers, and exams.Click here for more information.
Certificate Programs
Two certificate programs are offered by Berkshire for Pastors and Church Leaders to expand service to Christ and His Church.Click here for more information.
