What Faculdade Teologica Batista De Brasilia does

Faculdade Teológica Batista de Brasília (FTBB) is a non-profit confessional Baptist higher education institution founded circa 1970 in Brasília, Distrito Federal, Brazil, maintained by the Associação Cultural Evangélica de Brasília (SOCEB). It operates as an MEC-recognized isolated institution offering a 4-year undergraduate Bacharelado em Teologia (in-person, evening classes), two postgraduate lato sensu programs (Pós-Graduação em Bíblia Sagrada and Pós-Graduação em Aconselhamento), and a portfolio of online continuing-education courses delivered via Moodle LMS. The institution has 799 active users across 21 courses on the Moodle platform, with curriculum organized around four formation axes spanning theology, biblical exegesis, mission/pastoral practice, and humanities. Revenue mechanics combine multi-year undergraduate tuition (undisclosed, vestibular admission), monthly postgraduate installments at R$295 for 9-12 months, and one-time online course fees ranging from R$49.97 to R$149.90.

In 2025, FTBB extended its product surface beyond traditional theology into AI-adjacent offerings, launching THEOS 24H (a partnership-developed AI-powered biblical study and sermon-preparation application), the IA para Professores online course (with the TeachPilot AI platform as an add-on), and the Clube da Inteligência Artificial learning community. Distribution combines a regional presencial campus confined to Brasília with a global digital footprint via Moodle, an e-commerce storefront (ftbb.edu.br/loja) supporting credit card installments, PIX, and boleto, plus WhatsApp direct sales (+55 61 9411-4515) and social channels (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube FTBBTV). The institution also pursues community engagement through events such as Festival Cantaremos 2025 and academic participation in the Sociedade Bíblica do Brasil's International Forum of Biblical Sciences. Leadership includes Diretor-Geral Pr. Carlos Silva and Coordenador de Graduação Dr. Alexandre Coelho, with a small core staff of 8 administrative employees backed by a credentialed faculty of masters/doctorates serving as instructors across programs.

Emerging players

• Liberty University Online: US-based evangelical university with extensive online theological degree programs. While geographically distant, competes with FTBB's online offerings for Portuguese-speaking evangelical students seeking accessible theological education.

Direct peers

• Seminário Bíblico Palavra da Vida: Brazilian evangelical seminary providing theological education and pastoral training across multiple Brazilian states. Competes with FTBB for evangelical students seeking certificate and degree programs in theology and ministry.
• Faculdade Batista de Teologia (FABAT): Baptist theological faculty in Brazil focused on undergraduate and postgraduate theological education. Directly comparable denomination, MEC-recognized programs, and similar target audience as FTBB.
• Faculdade Teológica Sul Americana (FTSA): Latin America's largest Protestant theological seminary based in São Paulo. Offers MEC-recognized undergraduate and postgraduate theology programs online; directly competes with FTBB for Brazilian evangelical students seeking formal theological credentials.
• Seminário Presbiteriano José Manoel da Conceição: Long-established Presbyterian seminary in Brazil offering theological formation. Adjacent to FTBB's evangelical/Baptist niche but competes for the same Brazilian evangelical theological education market.
• Seminário Teológico Batista do Sul (STBS): Baptist theological seminary in Brazil offering theology degrees and ministry training with denominational alignment to FTBB. Competes for the same Baptist/evangelical student base for presencial and online theological formation.

Others

• Moodle (open-source LMS): Open-source learning management system that FTBB uses as its core online education platform. Adjacent infrastructure provider rather than direct competitor, but powers FTBB's online course delivery and user engagement.
• Plataforma Educacional Hotmart: Brazilian online course marketplace used by many independent creators to sell courses. Adjacent infrastructure provider that competes with FTBB's own Moodle LMS and e-commerce shop for hosting Christian education content.

Broad incumbents

• Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie: Large Presbyterian-affiliated Brazilian university with extensive theology programs, distance education, and broader higher education portfolio. Overlaps with FTBB's theological offerings but operates at much larger scale across multiple disciplines.
