Abstract: In this paper we derive necessary and sufficient homological and cohomological conditions for profinite groups and modules to be of type $operatorname{FP}_n$ over a profinite ring $R$, analogous to the Bieri-Eckmann criteria for abstract groups. We use these to prove that the class of groups of type $operatorname{FP}_n$ is closed under extensions, quotients by subgroups of type $operatorname{FP}_n$, proper amalgamated free products and proper $operatornameHNN$-extensions, for each $n$. We show, as a consequence of this, that elementary amenable profinite groups of finite rank are of type $operatorname{FP}_{i}nfty$ over all profinite $R$. For any class $mathcalC$ of finite groups closed under subgroups, quotients and extensions, we also construct pro-$mathcalC$ groups of type $operatorname{FP}_n$ but not of type $operatorname{FP}_{n+1}$ over $mathbb{Z}_{hatmathcalC}$ for each $n$. Finally, we show that the natural analogue of the usual condition measuring when pro-$p$ groups are of type $operatorname{FP}_n$ fails for general profinite groups, answering in the negative the profinite analogue of a question of Kropholler.
