1. Reimagining our Courses
We are transforming the way we teach to meet the changing needs of students. This means reimagining our world-class teaching material, so that lectures can be accessed digitally, anytime, anywhere in the world. Our tutors are already rethinking course content for mixed online and in-person delivery, sequencing it to work at the students’ pace, and adapting training so that study in community is effective across time zones, locations and languages. In 2026-27 we will be preparing a new suite of modules which can either be taken as single courses, as part of professional development or within a significantly enhanced academic programme.
In time, we also plan to develop our lifelong learning options so that students have the flexibility they need to learn and serve God in their communities.
We need your help: It costs approximately £18,000 to design, create and test a 20-hour mission training module. We are aiming to complete around 12-15 modules each year. We are looking for partners to help provide £220-270,000 per year to fund our Course Innovation Programme.
3. Opening Opportunities for All
Our aim is to train more students, where and when they need us and to ensure that financial circumstances are not a barrier to learning. As we adapt our training, we will commit to providing flexible bursaries to cover tuition costs, particularly for students from the majority world.
We need your help: It costs £10,000 for a UK student and £7,500 for an overseas student to access our training free of charge, each year. Our ambition is for 25% of our students to receive a full bursary every year, at a cost of £100,000 in 2025/26, rising to £415,000 by 2030/31 as our student numbers grow.
