Equip your network with a Cebuano Bible curriculum
Many ministry leaders need theological preparation to guide their congregations. You can give the pastors in your network a complete Cebuano Bible curriculum.
Build a strong theological foundation for local pastors
Many pastors serve with no access to seminary or Bible college. They step into leadership roles out of necessity. Very few institutions offer comprehensive Bible training in Cebuano. Pastors need resources in the language they speak at home and in their local assemblies.
A unified approach provides a clear path through Scripture. Dedicated leaders want to study the text deeply and understand fundamental doctrines.
Multiply capable leaders through translated theological materials
The Bible Training Centre for Pastors (BTCP) curriculum is translated into Cebuano. Graduates are equipped to lead and train others. BTCP is a member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability, its curriculum is used in 105 countries, and it has more than 200,000 graduates. Partner reports show more than 6,000 people have taken part in the Philippines.
Translated materials let Cebuano speakers study in their own language. Leaders gain a theological foundation without leaving their ministry context. The materials provide a structured path through Scripture, allowing leaders to study the text directly.

Three tracks that fit every level of church leadership
Every leader can start at the right level.
BTCI (5 courses, 275 hours) equips lay leaders and small group hosts. Graduates can apply for advanced standing at Dallas Theological Seminary.
BTCL (8 courses, 400 hours) trains elders, deacons, and ministry leaders.
BTCP (10 courses, 520 hours) is the full program for pastors at any stage.
See the course lists on our three tiers of training page.
Live classes your own church can host
BTCP classes are live and face-to-face, led by a local instructor from your church or ministry. Instructors have theological training through seminary, Bible college, BTCP programs, or equivalent biblical education. BTCP prepares each instructor in a two-day teacher workshop and provides teaching guides and ongoing support.
Fees that keep training within reach
Fees are per student, per course, and depend on where the class meets: $20 in North America and $11 everywhere else. The five BTCI courses cost $100 in North America and $55 elsewhere. Manuals are included, and there are no franchise or subscription fees. If these fees are not workable in your setting, we accept applications for a reduced rate. Partners order materials through BTCP on our ordering page.
Common questions
Is the curriculum available in this language? Yes. The translation is listed as completed on our translations page. Our team will confirm which materials are available when you meet with us.
How long does it take? Partners set the schedule, as long as each course meets its minimum hours. Many classes meet once a week for a few hours; others hold week-long intensives each quarter. The BTCI track (275 hours) usually takes one and a half to two and a half years, depending on how often and how long classes meet.
Where can classes be held? Almost anywhere: churches, homes, rented spaces, even restaurants and other dining establishments.
How are students evaluated? Instructors look at attendance, participation, and consistent completion of the study-question sections in the manuals.
Can students in different tracks learn together? Yes. Students working toward different tracks can study in the same class for the courses their tracks share.
Can students take the courses online? No. Classes are live and face-to-face, so students and teachers learn together in the same room.
