King's Evangelical Divinity School was founded in 1990 and for almost two decades was known as The Midlands Bible College and Divinity School. The school offers graduate and post-graduate degree programs accredited and administered by the University of Wales, Lampeter, although this will transfer to Chester University.
The undergraduate Bachelor of Theology degree is an honors program with a focus on Bible Hermeneutics (Bible interpretation) and theology. A master's degree is also offered, along with additional courses covering biblical Greek and Hebrew.
Distance learning students may complete the course modules in their own time, from home, and have access to tutors and lecturers via email and telephone, when needed.

The London School of Theology is a traditional, campus-based college located in northwest London, but offers several distance learning courses, including a Certificate of Higher Education in Theology, a Diploma of Higher Education in Theology and a Bachelor of Arts (honors) undergraduate degree in theology.
All courses are modular and students enrolled in the distance learning program can work at their own pace. The focus is on biblical doctrine and interpretation, with an emphasis on practical application of biblical understanding in secular environments to help students prepare for further training or ministry work. The school also assists with practical, real-world placements where students are able to apply the knowledge gained while participating in the course.
