What will I learn?

This advanced certificate program offers students who have already earned a Master of Arts in Theology or a related field opportunities for extended, specialized graduate study. The program is an excellent choice for those who wish to update their theological knowledge while earning a new credential. It is also well-suited for teachers who wish to develop deeper understanding of a specific area of theology or for pastoral ministers who wish to enhance their professional pastoral competence through further graduate study. Our program offers considerable flexibility, allowing you to tailor your study according to your unique interests and professional goals. You can complete their advanced certificates completely online or through a combination of online and face-to-face courses on our Queens, NY campus. Our faculty are well-known in the field and have active research agendas. As a result, the program curriculum draws upon contemporary theological scholarship, offering you a more rigorous theological education and broader perspective than local seminary education typically provides.
