The current course has proven very popular and we have a large cohort.  We are therefore planning for a smaller intake in September 2026. We encourage you to book for the whole course rather than individual modules.  The course currently takes place in various venues plus an online group.  We may look at other venues if there is demand from a particular area, contact Alan if you think you might be looking to host a group

From 2026 the fees have increased to:

• £800 - Full course - Standard rate (£400 per year)
• £1400 - Full course - Recognised Local Minister (RLM) rate (£700 per year) for those pursuing Recognised Local Minister status, you will also need to agree this with your Baptist Association Regional Minister.
• £400 - Full course - Concession under 30s rate
• £3200 - Church discount rate - buy 4 get 1 free (i.e. five standard rate places).
• £25 - Marking fee - in addition to the module fee, for those NOT pursuing RLM status who nevertheless choose to submit an essay for marking.
