Part-Time Study

We understand that your call to Christian service requires more than head knowledge.

Our goal is to provide a framework in which Christians can grow as able communicators of the Christian message, competent leaders in Christian work, and as spiritually mature believers.

Our part-time programme provides a foundation in applied theology. The part-time course runs for one day a week (currently a Tuesday) during normal academic term time, and last for two years.
