Guided Learning
The programme can be followed in your own home, at your own pace, with periodic face-to-face contact workshops. Tutorial assistance is available as required. It is the equivalent of a one year full-time course. We strongly recommend that you aim to complete it in two years.
The programme is offered at present in the form of print materials, supplemented as appropriate by e-mail. For each Module there are two Study Guides that contain all the learning material for that topic. No text books or reference books are required. You will need your own Bible. |
