Jesus Training College, a pioneering coeducational teacher education institution in Kerala’s self-financing sector, is set to celebrate its Pearl Jubilee next year, marking 29 years of excellence in central Kerala’s educational landscape. Established in June 1995, the college was founded with the noble aim of providing quality teacher education to underprivileged students and producing dedicated, competent teachers accountable to the nation. This institution fulfilled a long-cherished dream of the people in and around the Diocese of Irinjalakuda, Kerala.
Affiliated with the University of Calicut, Jesus Training College is managed by the Jesus Training College Trust under the Catholic Diocese of Irinjalakuda. The B.Ed. program admits two units of fifty students each across six subject streams.

The college was conceived by visionary Mar James Pazhayatil, the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Irinjalakuda, to empower and develop men and women in the region. These values are upheld by the current chairman and patron, His Excellency Mar Pauly Kannookadan, the second Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Irinjalakuda. The college campus spans 3.88 acres with a built-up area of 3266.39 m² in Mala Panchayath.
