The programme combines classroom lectures with practical ministry placements. Students participate in supervised ministry experiences in local churches, conducting services, leading Bible studies, and providing pastoral care. Teaching methods include exegetical exercises, sermon preparation, theological reflection papers, and field education assignments. The programme is delivered on a full-time basis with part-time options available. Graduates find placement as pastors, evangelists, church administrators, lay ministers, or Christian education coordinators in churches and faith-based organisations. The certificate also provides a pathway to diploma and degree programmes in divinity, theology, or religious studies, with many graduates progressing to higher theological education. This programme is ideal for individuals called to Christian ministry who do not meet the entry requirements for diploma or degree programmes, as well as lay leaders and church workers seeking formal theological qualification. The accessible entry requirements make it suitable for mature candidates with ministry experience but limited formal education.
