CLTC 50TH ANNIVERSARY

The Christian Leaders’ Training College of Papua New Guinea Inc., an accredited institution of Higher Education and a Good Corporate Citizen,  is a servant of the churches of Papua New Guinea and the South Pacific inspiring men and women for Christian ministry and leadership based upon biblical values. This it does through its three campuses at Banz in the Highlands, Port Moresby and Lae. It is interdenominational and attracts students from all provinces in Papua New Guinea and many Pacific island nations.
The College offers Certificate, Diploma, Bachelor and Master courses in ministry and biblical values as well as Distance Theological courses. These programs are designed to meet the needs of the Melanesian churches throughout Papua New Guinea and the wider Pacific region with key emphasis on emerging leaders. Students are trained as leaders to take the gospel back to their communities in word and action.
In 2015 the Christian Leaders’ Training College is celebrating its 50th anniversary. From the first group of nineteen students in 1965, the College has grown to the point where nearly two hundred students attend classes each year and over one thousand study through distance education. In its fifty years the College has graduated over two thousand students  who have become community leaders, politicians, faithful pastors, church leaders and many service occupations.
With God’s help and direction, the College looks ahead to continue its calling to inspire the teaching of future generations of students as Christian leaders of Papua New Guinea and the Pacific region.

Within only nine months of obtaining the site in 1964 the College had commenced lectures. The huge task of draining the swamp where the College was being built and the construction of buildings, roads and infrastructure were miraculously done under the guidance of God and the sweat of many faithful men and women from PNG, Australia and New Zealand.
