ATA Visiting Evaluation Team (VET) consisting of Rev. Ram Kumar Budhathoki, Principal of Nepal Ebenezer Bible College; Rev. Vishwas Padole, Manager (Finance and Admin.), ATA India; and Rev. Dr. Paul Cornelius, Regional Secretary, ATA India, visited the Nepal Theological College (NTC) in Kathmandu on March 30-April 1, 2015.
Recognizing the urgent need to train pastors, evangelists, and leaders for the Assemblies of God of Nepal, which was
formed in 1975, the movement established the Discipleship Training Center offering a three-month program in 1978. Subsequently, as the number of churches began to grow, the course was modified into a one-year Certificate of Theology, which was further expanded to a two-year Diploma of Theology program. Later, as the vision and need grew, the leadership of Assemblies of God of Nepal (AGN) drew up plans to set up a permanent campus to increase the training capacity. The three-year B.Th. program began in 2007. Both the Diploma in Theology and the Bachelor of Theology programs were given accreditation in 2010.
NTC trains men and women to fulfill the mission of the Church as taught in Scripture—shaping servant leaders with knowledge, skill, and passion to equip the church and evangelize the world in the power of the
Spirit. One of the key objectives keeping the Nepali context in mind is to “provide culturallyrelevant
ministerial training for pastors, missionaries, evangelists, teachers and counselors and the institutional leadership.”
The school offers Diploma of Theology and Bachelor of Theology
