Certificate in Theology by Blended Distance Learning

Certificate in Theology and Pastoral Studies by blended learning. This is a validated qualification awarded by the University of the West of Scotland, bearing credits equivalent to the first year of a University degree. Next term all our regular classes will be online, and we’re offering three classes in the second term by blended learning (2 from the regular programme and one specific to the Certificate programme). This allows you to complete a full one-year Certificate programme at a distance. The blend of courses this year are ideal for covering foundational themes for ministry introducing biblical studies and exegesis, doctrine and ethics, preaching and homiletics, and church and ecclesiology.

Recently we were challenged to think about the type of College that we are and what we aim to be. In many ways, our vision statement articulates what we already are rather than something we are trying to become. However, at the same time, it helps us identify what we value and what we hope all students and friends of the College experience when they come to Scottish Baptist College. As we came together to form this vision we also realised that a vision shouldn’t be static but rather a dynamic statement that reflects the continual development of College life, so we continually remind ourselves of it and revisit to see if it needs reinvigorating.
