As such it is a course of study for practitioners who already have some ongoing professional experience or for initial professional development.
These awards require eight units (64 credit points). At least six units will come from units in Ministry and Practice for the MA(Min) or from Bible and Christian Thought for the MA(Theol). Units will be offered on a part-time basis and can take up to six years to complete. An independent study project worth two units (16 cps) is allowed.
Students may exit after four units (32 cps) with a Graduate Diploma of Ministry or Graduate Diploma of Theology.
The following units are planned (each is 8 cps and dates usually co-incide with school holidays; * units with two codes can be counted in either area, depending on which degree the student is enrolled in.)
