St. Petersburg Seminary and Yeshiva recognizes that many individuals who want to study the Bible and theological topics  to complete a degree, are not able to attend classes at the Clearwater, Florida campus.  For them, a number of distance courses have been prepared for “Anytime, Anywhere Learning.”

​

The list of currently available distance courses is shown on the second page of the Schedule of Classes.

​

These distance courses are a great option for students living in another state or country who would like to study independently or at a more leisurely pace.  A digital recording of the lectures with the syllabus and reading list will be emailed to you.

​

Courses may be started at any time.  The required work should be completed within four months, the length of a school term, though an extension may be granted if necessary.

​

These courses are part the requirements for degree programs of both the Seminary and of Netzer David International Yeshiva.  They include such favorites as Biblical Hermeneutics, Jewish Roots I and II, Biblical/Messianic Apologetics and others. Those related to Messianic studies fulfill the requirements of the Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations (UMJC) for licensing and ordination.

​

In order to take distance courses, it is necessary first to apply for enrollment in the Seminary, as described under the heading, Prospective Students/Admissions Program.  In addition to the regular tuition there is a distance fee of $50 per course.
