About this college

Our History

In 2014, Olivet Seminary launched its own international network partnering with churches interested in starting up their own seminary and ministry training. In this way it further established itself as a distinct ministry from  Olivet Theological College & Seminary (OTCS) and its divisions. In 2019 during the pandemic, Olivet Theological Seminary in Australia was established as part of the global campus networks of Olivet Seminary.  

In 2023, Olivet Theological Seminary was awarded as a Member Insitution of Sydney College of Divinity to offer courses with Australian accreditated diploma and degrees, to serve the local students onsite and global students through online learning platforms.
