Baxter\u2019s resident training program<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baxter\u2019s resident training program <\/strong>is a four-year, university-level, academic program. It is supplemented with weekend church ministry assignments and an annual evangelistic campaign. Once a Baxter student reaches his fourth year of studies, he is sent off for a six-month capstone ministry apprenticeship known as PAM<\/a><\/strong>. All of his studies prepare him\/her for this full-time experience. Hundreds are baptized each year by Baxter students as they participate in these activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the resident ministry training program,<\/strong> Baxter offers a one-year correspondence course through the CELO<\/strong><\/a> program. A three-year program, PEC<\/a><\/strong>, is offered by Zoom on Saturdays and provides area-wide leadership training. Various seminars are offered yearly for the students and those beyond Baxter\u2019s gates. The Baxter faculty also offers its services to assist in the planting and developing of local churches. Those who have received training through Baxter number in the thousands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
