All pastors from established denominations are invited to enrol for the New Advanced Certificate in Ministerial Renewal. It is a three year programme consisting of nine three-day-modules.  We do three module every year. 

It covers all the important aspects of ministry and the idea is to bring students up to date with recent developments in the different fields. One of the powerful advantages is that we work ecumenically and usually have pastors / students from very diverse backgrounds – an ideal situation for deep learning.
