In 1979,the Divinity School entered into a collaborative agreement with Carey Theological College (of the University of British Columbia) through its long term partner in Ministry- Canadian Baptist Ministries.

It later evolved to Africa Integrated Theological College (AITC) on 22nd March, 2008, and later to the present day EKIC in September 23rd, 2008 when education courses began.

Upon EKIC’s registration with the Government of Kenya, Carey (through CBM) entered into a further collaborative agreement with EKIC which enabled EKIC to offer both Masters and Doctoral Degrees in Ministry.Carey also facilitated EKIC to develop, launch and offer a Diploma in Divinity and lately a Bachelor in Divinity.
