UPDATED! Applications for 2020-21 are now open! We are waiting on government guidance as to whether we will be able to deliver the course in person or be continuing online. We will post updates as soon as we are able. Students should, therefore, be aware that MMTC 2020-21 may be delivered, at least partly, online and should acquire a Zoom account in advance.

No particular academic qualifications are required to undertake the MMTC. Course participants must, however, share our conviction that the Bible is the true and living Word of God, and have a commitment to Bible-centred ministry. Applicants will be expected to have the support of their church leader (who will be asked to supply a reference on their behalf) for their participation in the course.

The 2020/21 course will run as follows.

Autumn term : 22 / 24 Sept – 8 / 10 Dec    (H-T 27/29 Oct)
