The Church of God European Theological Seminary offers External Studies Programs that under certain conditions are transferable into the residential studies program for undergraduate credit. These studies are offered through the Extension Schools of Christian Ministry / ESCM set up by the National Churches of God in conjunction with the Seminary. The conditions for establishing and operating these schools are listed in a special catalog available through the Seminary office or the national schools. The course offerings and schedules are determined by the Director of the national school in agreement with the Director of External Studies and under the conditions laid down in the ESCM Handbook.
