Administrative HistoryThe Aberdeen School for Christian Workers (later the Aberdeen School of Study and Training) provided evening classes open to all, but strongly recommended for Sunday School teachers. The syllabus included Bible study, world religions, Church history, foreign missions, social problems, the art of teaching, and an ambulance class, and examinations were optional. The fees were very low. The Board of Administration included representatives from the General Assembly, the Presbytery, and senators of Christ's College. Decreasing numbers led to the closure of the school in 1948.
