The Master of Theological Studies (M.T.S.) in Classical Christian Education is a thirty-six credit hour program that provides students with a foundation upon which to construct a philosophy of education for both the school and homeschool settings. Students will build on their theological training to grasp the history of Christian learning, the development of the liberal arts, and the biblical application of these principles for educational endeavors.

F.T.S. has partnered with the Beza Institute to offer teaching certification for M.T.S. students. Details are forthcoming.
