Vice-President's Message
DR. DAVID T WIJUNAMAI
Vice-President, GPTAM
Greetings from the office of the Vice-president, Global Partnership for Theological Accreditation and Mission (GPTAM)!
Theological Institutions are communities of faith and learning, guided by a theological vision. As such, the heritage of Biblical scholarship and response to the global context of theological education and mission urgency is imperative. The end result of the training in Bible colleges is for the purpose of soul winning and there is a need to send out more missionaries. True to its Aims and Objectives, GPTAM strives to strengthen member institutions in offering quality Theological Programs through Accreditation, Networking and Support Services.
In an ever growing secular and sacred sphere, leadership development for the Church is at the crux of Theological institutions, and thus requires special attention. GPTAM may be requested to provide guide for faculty and administration in addressing principles of leadership development through modeling, mentoring, coursework, internship and extracurricular activities.
If it is your aspiration and passion to usher in a robust Theological Accrediting organization, you will succeed in transforming your vision into a reality through GPTAM. Make use of this opportunity, and engage in a holistic development for institutional and ecclesiastical growth.
