The Norwegian School of Leadership and Theology (Norwegian: Høyskolen for Ledelse og Teologi, HLT) is a theological seminary situated at Stabekk in Bærum, Norway. The institution is jointly owned by the Baptist Union of Norway and Filadelfia Oslo, a Pentecostal congregation.

History

[edit]

The school has its origins in the founding of the Norwegian Baptist Seminary in 1910.[1][2] The college was established in 2008 as a merger between the Norwegian Baptist Seminary and the Pentecostal Center for Leadership and Theology.[3] The institution took over the accreditation of the Baptist seminary as well as its premises.[4] [5] It offers a bachelor's degree in theology and a one-year program in Christianity, accredited by the Norwegian Agency for Quality Assurance in Education.[6]
