Ecumenical Institute for Distance Theological Studies
The Ecumenical Institute for Distance Theological Studies (EIDTS) is a New Zealand theological college.
The Institute was established in 1993 to replace the former Joint Board of Theological Studies, which comprised five churches from 1968 to 1992, which in its turn had replaced the St John's Theological College LTh (for the Anglican and Methodist churches.
The EIDTS offers STh and LTh qualifications.
As a result of government funding ceasing in December 2012, the Institute will close at the end of 2014. The final EIDTS graduation will be held in April 2015
