Greetings! If you are a looking for a seminary program that will enable you to be equipped biblically, theologically, and practically in your present ministry or vocational context without having to uproot yourself or your family, Trinity's Extension Sites may be for you.
The options that we offer are designed around Trinity Evangelical Divinity School's Master of Arts (Christian Studies) degree program or the Certificate in Christian Studies, both of which enable you to engage in contextualized learning that you can immediately apply to your ministry or vocational context.
Whether you desire a whole degree or to take occasional courses for refreshment, stimulation, or satisfaction of a professional continuing education requirement, these educational options can further equip you for more effective ministry within church, parachurch, or marketplace ministries.
Please feel free to contact me or one of my staff at Trinity Extension with questions you may have about programs, courses, extension sites, or about how a course of study might be designed suited to your needs. Call us at 800.588.7705. We look forward to hearing from you.
In His service,

Extension Program
Trinity provides educational services that are accessible for learners whose life situations are characterized by being rooted in communities other than Deerfield, Illinois. We have extension sites in the United States, primarily in the Midwest. Through the Extension program, we seek to enable more students to take advantage of Trinity's resources and services.
Extension sites provide the opportunity for students to study locally with regular Trinity faculty and extension adjunct faculty. Classes are scheduled to be compatible with the rooted lives of mature learners. The following three formats are used:
- Evening classes consisting of class one night per week.
- Weekend classes consisting of instruction on Friday evening and all day Saturday every 2 to 4 weeks.
- Modular classes allow a student to attend all classroom sessions within a short period of time. Reading assignments are completed ahead of these classes and writing assignments follow.
