ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
Equip Diploma programme combines selected Certificate courses with key first year courses from the Degree programme. It further equips students for ministry in churches or other para-church organisations, and allows students to sample degree-level theological study.
While the Diploma can be completed full-time in a year, it is designed for part-time students. There is no time limit as long as students complete courses worth 3 credits per year.
Successful completion of the Diploma programme will satisfy the first-year requirements for Equip’s Bachelor in Theology / Bachelor in Divinity Degree programmes due to be relaunched in 2024.
