ACTS presents a decidedly unique approach to seminary education.

CBS represents one of 5 denominational seminaries combined to form the Associated Canadian Theological Seminaries (ACTS). Located on the campus of Trinity Western University in Langley, B.C., ACTS offers a variety of doctoral, master and diploma programs in a diverse, collaborative environment. This collective range of theological perspectives from within the Believer's Church tradition creates a setting to learn, grow, and explore theological traditions and spiritual experiences.

This unique partnership of 5 seminaries share their expertise, resources, faculty, and experiences in developing Christian leaders for vocational and lay ministry. Faculty represent 5 denominations and are committed to serving the needs of each constituency with integrity and faithfulness. For a fraction of the cost necessary to run an independent seminary, the BGCC enjoys the benefits of a fully equipped Canadian seminary on a university campus.

Student are provided with a dynamic, integrated learning environment and challenged to:

• Grow personally
• Learn sound theology
• Refine ministry skills through hands-on experience
• Lead with vision
• Network with other developing and established ministry leaders

ACTS is dedicated to preparing visionary leaders through close mentoring relationships between professors and students and between students and peers.

ACTS continues to expand its course delivery options with online and modular courses. Course and program offerings are reviewed continually in order to be responsive to ministry educational needs and personal spiritual formation. Programs are designed to help students come together and go further in their personal growth, learning, understanding, and appreciation of diverse worldviews.
