Accreditation of Academic Programs
The establishing of Continental Theological Seminary, as an institution of higher education in Europe was first born in the heart of Rev. Alfred Amitié the founding director of the school. For sixty years now Continental has sent out alumni into more than 60 countries.
The seminary has been officially recognized and accredited within its European context. On 25 November 2005 the Belgian Flemish Government granted the recognition and official registration to the seminary as an institution offering higher theological education. The first rigorous procedure for academic accreditation was completed, on 18 October 2007 when the CTS’s Master of Theology in Evangelical and Pentecostal Studies Degree Program was fully accredited by the Belgian Flemish Ministry of Education. Thus, CTS was authorized to issue its own Master’s degree program as the other degree granting recognized European institutions of higher education. In 2011 the program passed the test of accreditation renewal scheduled according to the Belgian legislation and its full accreditation continues until 2027 when accreditation renewal test is due again.
