About Evangelical Presbyterian Theological Seminary (EPTS)

Evangelical Presbyterian Theological Seminary (EPTS), Peki, founded in A.D. 1864, is one of the oldest Biblical Formation Institutions in West Africa with a rich history. In 2007, it became one of the accredited campuses of the E.P. University College, dubbed Greenhill’s Campus. This Seminary is a community where Jesus confirms a person’s heart’s desire to work, speak, and think for Him. It is made up of Students, Academic-Staff, Administrators and non-academic staff.

In recent years, the Seminary Campus, in responding adequately to the demands of Human Resource (HR) competencies viz-a-viz the rapid Changes and Challenges that continue to take place in the socio-religious environment, developed a 5-year Strategic Plan ( 2021-2025)  to focus the Seminary on clear goals which will transform it so that it can build the HR competencies for propelling EPCG and other Christian organizations towards the needs of the Ghanaian environment.
