InterVarsity Partnership
Earn graduate credit for InterVarsity training
North Park Theological Seminary is happy to partner with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship staff members as they develop skills for success in ministry. This partnership offers full-time InterVarsity staff graduate credit for NISET courses, either as degree-seeking or visiting students.
Courses in a variety of formats
Along with earning credit for NISET courses, full-time IVCF staff are welcome to continue their ministry or theological education in one of North Park's master's degree or certificate programs. Courses are offered in a variety of formats including:
- Traditional semester-long courses on our main campus in Chicago
- Online courses throughout the year
- Intensive courses during January or summers, which mix in-class learning and online work
- Courses taught at the Seminary's regional sites around the country
Graduate credit at an affordable rate
Full-time InterVarsity staff qualify for a generous tuition reduction on credits earned for NISET courses and any other North Park courses taken while a staff member.
