Pulse Program |
|
The Pulse Program offers an opportunity for those lay people involved in their local church to gain a basic ext studies understanding of Christian ministry. It is designed to bring theological studies to where the people are – those who have never had an opportunity to attend full-time courses. It is not a correspondence course but a course for those who form themselves into a study group any where in Southern Africa. They need a pastor or someone who gas had theological training to be the course facilitator. The course is registered with the Seminary who will supply the necessary self-study materials. The study group meets each week to receive input and to share about their studies. Upon satisfactory completion of the course, a diploma is issued by the Seminary. Classes take place twice a week on the Seminary campus. The programme is also available for small groups to use in the comfort of their own churches under the facilitation of a trained pastor/minister. PLEASE VISIT OUR FEES PAGE FOR PRICING INFORMATION |
