FAQ: Credit Transfer

  • Do you accept credit transfer from other institutions
  • Yes, we do accept credit transfer from most reputed accredited as well as non accredited institutions. However, the final discretion is ours. We need not accept credits just because a certain institution is accredited, and we need not reject just because a certain institution is unaccredited because accreditation does not automatically mean quality and unaccredited does not automatically mean lack of quality.

Can I transfer Trinity credits to other institutions
You can try to transfer them to other institutions. However, we cannot guarantee such transfer because each institution has its own criterion for such transfer. In fact there is no institution in the world that can unconditionally guarantee transfer of credits to other institutions. For example, credits earned at accredited American seminaries are often rejected by many non American institutions. So you have to ask individual institutions whether they would transfer credit-transfer from Trinity.

  • I thought accreditation means US Government guarantee for credit transfer
  • You must realize that the US government does not accredit any theological seminary. In USA all accreditation is done by private Non Governmental Agencies. Also, accreditation only means endorsement of quality and nothing more. In India the government does not get into religious/theological accreditation because of strict church/state separation, and therefore accreditation of theology courses in India is done by NGOs, exactly the way it is done in the USA.

I want an accredited degree that can guarantee me a job in the USA
In that case please look for an institution in the USA that can offer such a guarantee. Trinity is not meant to train job seekers in the American job market. The primary purpose is to equip people in Bible and theology.

Richard_preaching Richard Gagnon serves as the senior pastor of the Reformed Baptist Church of Lac Megantic, Quebec (Canada). He is a native French-speaker, though he manages English very well. He is a bachelor in theology (ThB) and is now pursuing his studies with Trinity School (India) to get his Masters and Doctorate degrees (ThM/ThD). Before being a student with Trinity, he was trained in an Evangelical and Reformed seminaries in Canada. He works in the ministry of the Word of God since 1991.

Earlier this year (2008), Dr. Philip invited him to become a senior-faculty-member for Trinity School. He accepted immediately, being a lifelong student and teacher of the Word of God. Thus, he is now the Head-Manager of the French branch of Trinity Graduate School of Apologetics and Theology. This office, being located in Canada, has for its main purpose to offer the programs of Trinity for those willing to work in French, though using the actual good material that Trinity offers to all its students.

From that time on, Trinity is able to reach a larger segment of the French Christian Church which is, at this moment, very poor in high standing biblical training. Already, French-speaking students as far as in Africa, USA and Canada have been enrolled with Trinity. Pastor Gagnon is totally sure that Trinity will become, if not already, the largest Christian Training Center, in the realm of distance-learning programs in the world.

Richard is also the Chief-Editor of the Journal of our school (Trinity Journal of Apologetics and Theology). He manages also other Christian websites like Ginosko (English), Reformata (French).

Finally, among his fields of expertise, pastor Gagnon is well acquainted with Reformed Theology, Systematic Theology, Hermeneutics and Expository Preaching. He is a passionate preacher of the Word of God always digging deeply in the Sacred Texts. His love for the Lord Jesus is evident in all his sermons. His preaching is always God and Christ-centered.
