The College was officially opened in September 1969 in Hamilton, Ontario. [1] The Ontario legislature granted degree-granting authority to the Seminary under the Canadian Reformed Theological College Act, 1981 [2] Since 1984, the Faculty is made up of four full-time professors. The seminary moved to a new location on the Hamilton escarpment in 1985. In 2010, the operating name was changed to the Canadian Reformed Theological Seminary. [3]
