Pastoral Training

farel

FAREL | Institute of Reformed Theology does not offer accredited courses. We work as a team with the Faculté de Théologie Évangélique (FTÉ).

We therefore encourage candidates for the pastorate as well as members of Protestant Reformed churches wishing to pursue advanced studies to enroll in the FTÉ.

FAREL is a welcoming home for pastoral candidates and members of all churches, especially those of the Reformed churches. We want to encourage them to choose their course of study in consultation with the local council or synod that recommends them.

The director of FAREL | Institut de théologie réformée would be pleased to guide you in the choice of your course of study and to encourage you through regular meetings throughout your studies at the Faculty of Evangelical Theology of Montreal.

The BTh and MDiv programs are 90 credits each. There are a large number of mandatory courses to take. For pastoral candidates, a certain number of these courses will also be required by the synod of your church.
