Abstract	:	This mixed-method study examined students’ perceptions of the extent they experienced transformative learning. It also examined students’ perceptions of the factors that may explain the transformative learning experience they had. The students who participated in this study were graduating students from the five theological higher educational institutions in Ethiopia which have some level of accreditation with the Association of Christian Theological Education in Africa. For the quantitative portion of the study an adapted version of an instrument was used. There were 137 graduating students and 31 faculty members who participated in the research from all five institutions. For the qualitative portion of the study, focus group discussions and classroom observations were conducted at each of the institutions. The findings of the study indicated that a varying number of students experienced different levels of transformative learning. It has also shown that instructional strategy was a significant predictor of all four factors of transformative learning and interpersonal relationship was a significant predictor of three of the transformative learning factors. Therefore, instructional strategies that actively engage the students in their learning and close personal relationships students have with instructors and other students improve the extent students experience transformative learning.
