Northwind offers a new style of online learning: Guided Education
When thinking about a seminary course, the common image is a professor in the front of a room, lecturing, and asking or answering questions. Sometimes facilitating peer learning in small discussion groups. This allows students to learn in a very direct way, but it is not the only way to teach. Northwind Theological Seminary courses are designed for the individual student who is taking a course anywhere (wifi available), anytime (at the student’s pace), on any device (computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone).
The Pedagogy or teaching philosophy at Northwind is Guided Education. Faculty-Mentors vet resources,
organize learning, and guide students in Video-Lecture Courses, Tutorial Courses, & Oxford-Style Courses.

Northwind Theological Seminary admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship programs, or other school-administered programs.
