About Sielmat Bible College
Sielmat Bible College is an evangelical theological institution offering Bachelor of Theology (B.Th.) and Master of Divinity (M. Div.) programs which are both accredited by the Asia Theological Association (ATA). The college was founded on April 1, 1980 with only fifteen students. Rev. D.

In 1995, it was renamed Sielmat Bible College with the introduction of the B.Th. Program. From 2020, it has also started the M.Div. program. Both the programs are fully accredited by the ATA.
