Our purpose is to advance the Kingdom of God through training and teaching people from all over the world.

CORE VALUES

Community

As a residential, cross-cultural community we provide a framework for growth in all areas and encourage the students to be Christlike. While fellowship between students and staff creates a close mentoring and nurturing environment.

Christ Centered

Jesus’ leadership was characterised by service as well as integrity, excellence, faith, hope and love, so we don’t just teach them to preach about Him but to imitate him and develop a servant attitude too.

Connected

We have always been aware of and responded to the needs of the nations and these international connections ensure that we continue to network with missions worldwide. While the students’ involvement in local churches gives opportunities to form connections within the UK.

Complete

The school believes that the key to preparing the next generation for effective ministry is a programme with a good academic curriculum taught by passionate, experienced and competent lecturers together with a strong vocational component, so this is our holistic approach.

VISION & GOALS

The IBTC’s vision is to empower a young generation to effectively function in Christian service. This vision is accomplished by welcoming students from many parts of the world, training them into mission back home and abroad.
