Our Heritage

Australian College of Christian Studies (ACCS) is the amalgamation of Emmaus Bible College and Tabor College NSW. Both institutions have a long and rich heritage of preparing their students for overseas or local ministry. Emmaus was established in 1957 and Tabor in 1992.

Emmaus accepted responsibility for the operations of Tabor College NSW in December 2010. Both colleges operated independently with a common Board of Governance and an interchange of faculty teaching at both institutions. In late 2014, Tabor College NSW changed its name to Australian College of Christian Studies. In December 2015, the Board commenced the strategic direction to merge the two colleges, with both colleges working toward operating as a single entity from January 2017.

We are the theological and training institution for the Christian Community Churches of Australia, and use their Statement of Faith.
