Golden Gate Founds Sixth Campus Online

Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary determined that distance learning would provide the institution with a valuable means of reaching beyond physical campus limitations. This fall a sixth campus will be founded – its eLearning Campus.

Louisville, KY, June 08, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary (www.ggbts.edu) holds a long-standing tradition of training men and women to be leaders in the Baptist faith. Continually expanding throughout the western United States, the institution boasts five campuses from which it teaches eager students. This fall a sixth campus will be founded – its eLearning Campus.

Golden Gate currently serves students from locations in Northern California, Southern California, Arizona, the Pacific Northwest and Colorado. Its leaders determined that distance learning would provide the institution with a valuable means of reaching beyond physical campus limitations.

“Beyond the broader issue that the world’s gotten smaller, Golden Gate had global communications already,” said Dr. Rick Durst, Project Coordinator overseeing the institution’s eLearning Campus. “It seemed appropriate that Golden Gate connect with students this way.”

“Golden Gate has a mandate from its denominational affiliate (the Southern Baptist Convention) to train leaders throughout the western world,” Dr. Durst explained. Through the virtual campus, the institution will now be able to expand its reach, extending its history of training others in preaching, evangelism, Christian education and more. Learning House, Inc. (www.learninghouse.com) is manning the “construction” of this new campus.

Admissions are currently being accepted for courses beginning August 24. The fall semester will include two online courses – Survey of Christianity and History of the Baptists. Four more courses will be launched for spring semester, all building towards a Master’s Degree in Divinity delivered two-thirds online.

For an institution already well-acquainted with delivering information and degrees from multiple campuses, Golden Gate is taking its programs to an even higher level with the advent of its online courses, as its mission to educate and train tomorrow’s church leaders will soon reach an infinite, worldwide audience.
