Caribbean Nazarene College

Raymond and Ruth Miller, veteran missionaries, founded Nazarene Training College. This institution began as part of the Trinidad District of the Church of the Nazarene, with invitations extended to the other two English-speaking Caribbean fields, Barbados and British Guiana. British Guiana had the honour of enrolling the first student on opening day – January 3, 1951. The College’s commitment to quality education can be seen in its emphasis of cultivating Christian leadership through academic excellence, spiritual development, community awareness, and steadfast loyalty to the principles of the Wesleyan holiness tradition in a Caribbean cultural environment. The programmes are designed to prepare persons for pastoral ministries and religious education in the local church and to prepare persons who desire to serve as Christian leaders in the church, their chosen careers, and religious and business organizations. The College also strives to encourage lifelong learning for those in leadership and to enhance the ministry of those that are already in ministry or in full-time career positions by offering seminars, conferences, and workshops.
