Testament Theological Seminary (TTS) was formerly registered as Testament Business Academy (TEBA) in 2018 and provided executive Christian business education and professional development programmes. In 2022, a vision for expansion was received to convert TEBA programmes to theological, pastoral and Christian leadership studies solely to train and equip marketplace ministers, missionaries, pastors, theologians, and church workers on pastoral ministry, biblico-systematic theology and congregational studies and other Christian educational programmes. TTS is a bible-based inter-denominational Theological Seminary in West Africa, that focuses on exploring critical issues of faith in Christian communities promoting spiritual formation and devotion to Jesus Christ. It offers historical, biblical, and theologically sound higher education, equipping Christian educators, missionaries, counsellors, scholars, and ministers for kingdom service and the edification of the Body of Christ.
