The Pittsburgh District Learning Center (PDLC) is here to equip those seeking to be used by God in a mighty way. In conjunction with the respective Nazarene Schools, we offer the courses necessary to complete educational requirements for ordination in the Church of the Nazarene.
Currently on-site classes are being reviewed. Therefore with consultation of the PDLC director, one should seek to take classes at a Nazarene School. .
Review the following links for further information. All additional questions can be forwarded to the PDLC Director, Rev. Kerry Purnell: [email protected].
