Trinity Theological Seminary, Legon


The Trinity Theological Seminary is a Protestant seminary located on a 70-acre campus in Legon, Accra. As an ecumenical theological tertiary and ministerial training institution, it serves students in Ghana and the West African sub-region. The focus of the curriculum is pedagogy, guidance and counselling and fieldwork to adequately prepare students for careers in Christian ministry. The school has Charter status and offers certificate, diploma and degree
programmes and is accredited by the National Accreditation Board of the Ghanaian Ministry of Education.
Per the Charter, the seminary’s statement of purpose is as follows:
The seminary was founded in 1942 under the auspices of three Protestant denominations: Methodist Church Ghana, Presbyterian Church of Ghana and the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. Later on in 1967, the Anglican Diocesan Council of Ghana and the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church became sponsoring churches as well. Students from non-sponsoring churches such as African Independent Churches, Charismatic and Pentecostal Churches are also permitted to have their clergy trained there. There is also opportunity for global exchange between the seminary students and foreign students and visiting academics from around the world in order to foster cross-cultural engagement. The campus houses a Chapel, the S.G Williamson Library, residences and hostels for seminary students.
