In order to support students who are interested in doing sabbatical study, LTS presents several programs which provides one-year full-time study with flexibility to meet the various needs.

The Dip.T.S. program is designed for students to do prerequisite study for theological degrees and help the students to clarify their calling for ordained ministry. However, it can also inform personal faith as well as increase capacity to become a witness to the Gospel in church and society. It also gives students the opportunity to spend some time in seminary to investigate the interrelationship between theological study and other vocations. The spouse of a full-time student may find this program helpful, as well as flexible, to pursue. A person who has completed six years of study in secondary school or its equivalent is eligible to enroll in this program.

The Dip.T.L. program is for applicants who have six years of study in secondary school from an institution recognized by LTS. High priority will be given to the applicants with library working experience

The Grad.Dip. program is to equip persons who seek a deeper understanding of the Christian faith, help persons who want to understand more clearly God’s calling for ordained ministry, and prepare the M.A., M.C.S., or other masters degrees related to theology, graduate for further study.

The M.A.1-yr programs are for learners with a bachelor degree (e.g. B.Th., B.C.E., B.A.) or equivalent. For more information of the program and enrollment requirements, please see the leaflet.

The M.Th. program aims to develop persons who are committed to theological education and scholarly research. A person who holds an M.Div. degree or its equivalent may enroll in the M.Th. program.
