Certificate in Christian Studies (60 credits Level 4)

This qualification uses a sub set of the course components covered in the Certificate in Christian Ministry Level 4 qualification. This qualification is classroom based teaching with some aspects of practical ministry. It offers the flexibility of studying either full time or part time or part time by audit.

Students studying full time can complete this qualification in six months. The College has two intakes a year, one in February and another one in July. Students studying full time may be eligible for student loans and allowances.

Part time students can select from the list of subjects offered as shown in the timetable below. Students who study in this way can eventually complete the qualification. Students studying part time must check with Study Link to see if you are eligible for loans and allowances.

A third option is studying part time by audit which means that you attend the lectures but do not complete any assignments. Usually these students select just a few course components of interest. As no credits are gained, no qualification can be awarded when this option is selected.

Course Components include the following:

Biblical overviews of the Old and New Testament
In depth studies on selected books
Interpreting Scripture
Spiritual Formation
Doctrine overview (including a Pentecostal perspective)
Communication and preaching skills
Leadership development
Pastoral Care
Ministry skills
