Our validated programmes range from Certificate (Level 4) through to MA (Level 7). We have a BA (Levels 4-6) which is studied over 6 years and offers a comprehensive and engaging study programme.

We also have a non-validated Online Foundations in Theology course for those who don’t feel ready for studying on a validated programme.

Our GradDip (Level 6), a 2-year diploma, is our most popular programme with a Specialist Track in Church Planting and Leadership available for those who have a degree, but not in theology, or with significant ministry experience. The Specialist Track in Student Ministry will be offered to 2nd year GradDip students in the year 2024-5 but not for the academic years after that.

"The shape of theological education and leadership development in the Church is changing dramatically. I’ve spent plenty of time looking for quality training providers who can meet our contemporary training needs, and am very impressed with WTC. I’m regularly recommending WTC to leaders who come to me for advice, and we are seeing that the WTC programmes are providing a key piece to the Leadership Pathway we are developing."
