Certificate IV in Christian Ministry and Theology

This Cert IV course is the entry level program for people looking to exercise leadership in Christian ministry in either a voluntary or paid capacity. It is an ideal program for anyone who is looking to ground themselves in a solid understanding of Scripture and grow and develop in the ministry stream in which they are gifted. The Cert IV program has been designed so that it can sit within a church internship program.

From time to time some modules may be offered in an intensive or face to face format, but all are available via distance. Recognition of prior learning is also available in part or full and will be assessed on prior training and experience. People are welcome to enrol in individual modules without completing the full qualification if there are specific areas of interest to them.

The full qualification will take between 410 and 590 hours of structured/supervised study plus additional unsupervised hours to complete (depending on the stream and electives chosen). Of these hours, 300 hours are in core units of study, with the remainder being in elective units.
