Heritage was founded in 1993 through the merger of the former London Baptist Bible College and Seminary of London, Ontario and Central Baptist Seminary of Toronto, Ontario. It was officially incorporated by the province of Ontario under the Heritage Baptist College and Heritage Theological Seminary Act, 1991. [1] HistoryCentral Baptist Seminary was itself formed out of a split in fundamentalist Baptist ranks when, in 1948, firebrand Baptist leader Thomas Todhunter Shields, then head of the Union of Regular Baptist Churches of Ontario and Quebec, dismissed Dean W. Gordon Brown from his seminary. Brown and 50 students then went on to begin a new seminary holding more moderate positions under the direction of President Jack Scott.[2] The first number of years the seminary was housed at Forward Baptist Church in Toronto, Ontario. In its formative years CBS provided undergraduate and graduate theological education until the mid-1980s. In later years the seminary was moved to Gormley, Ontario (north of Toronto). London Baptist Seminary began in 1976 in London, Ontario. The school provided undergraduate and graduate theological education. In 1981, the school's name changed to London Baptist Bible College and London Baptist Seminary (LBBC & LBS). AccreditationAs an institution granting both undergraduate and graduates degrees, all of Heritage's degrees are accredited by The Association for Biblical Higher Education. The graduate school is an associate member of the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada.[3] StatusIn 1991, the Ontario legislature officially recognized the seminary as a degree-granting institution through the passage of "An Act to Incorporate the Heritage Baptist College and Heritage Theological Seminary, 1991, 1991".[1] GovernanceHeritage is governed by a Board of Governors composed of distinguished Christian leaders from across Ontario. Heritage has adopted a Carver Policy Governance model for the Board of Governors and the institution. AdministrationThe current President of Heritage College & Seminary is Rick Reed. Reed's appointment to office began in January 2013. Prior to Reed, Marvin Brubacher held the presidency from 1993 until 2011. The Vice President of Academics is David Barker. Barker also serves as the Dean of the Seminary. Barry Howson is the Dean of the College.[1] Academic programs{{Baptist}}College - Undergraduate level certificates and degrees in a range of disciplines.
