Trinity Evangelical Christian University and Seminary is the Educational Ministry and private Seminary of The United New Testament Church. We have been Serving the Independent Christian Ecclesia since 1999.

Trinity offers many Specialized Degrees, Professional Certificates, and continuing Education Programs in various ministry areas.

• Theology & Divinity Studies
• Pastoral Counseling & Psychology Studies
• Church / Ministry Administration & Management
• Missionary Studies

As a seminary, we cherish educational lessons and structure and offer courses through the independent study method that we call the Oxford Method, but we also recognize that many clergies have life experience that can be turned into earned credits; we call this the Clergy Life Experience Portfolio Program (CLEPP). We also offer Professional Ministry Certification Programs and Continuing Education Units.
