CTS To Offer Second Greek Course Online
Due to the great response to its current online Pre-seminary Elementary Greek course, Concordia Theological Seminary will offer a second Pre-seminary Greek course online this winter.

Beginning on December 1, 2008, this online course will continue for three quarters, ending August 14, 2009. Once again, taught by Dr. John Nordling, Associate Professor of Exegetical Theology, and moderated by Rev. Mark Braden of Eau Claire, WI (Greek Tutor), this online course will be taught using Concordia Theological Seminary’s learning management system and interactive multimedia learning objects as well as more traditional means of instruction. Mirroring the Biblical Greek course taught on campus it will cover the same material as the ten-week intensive course but will extend over the period of three academic quarters. This course will run:

     Winter Quarter     December 1, 2008 to February 27, 2009
     Spring Quarter     March 9, 2009 to May 21, 2009
     Summer               June 8, 2009 to August 14, 2009
