Practical Placement

The course is centred around a practical placement. This should be an area that will develop and benefit the local church, or a ministry related to the local church, and reflect the calling and passion of the student. This is a one day per week placement (not including usual Sunday Church Serving) which must be agreed with the senior/lead pastor or minister from the local church and the student’s supervisor in the ministry area (if different). During this time of study, we expect that the student will be treated and should behave like a staff member of the local church or ministry.

Next Intake

Students will have classes every Friday morning 9am to 1pm, at Destiny College building on 70 Cathedral Street.
