HIGHER CERTIFICATE IN YOUTH MINISTRY


For the first nine years of its existence Catholic Bible College offered a one-year full-time residential course, a Certificate of Biblical Ministry, to prepare young adults to be youth leaders in their parishes and communities.

Today this course is being re-developed as a Higher Certificate course that will satisfy requirements for accreditation. It will be offered by a combination of guided learning, periodic workshops and supervised practical experience.

The structure of this new course will probably resemble the following:
Eight (8) modules (15 credit points each)
