The Diploma programme is a two year programme that combines a study of the text and theology of the Bible plus personal discipleship and ministry skills. The Diploma of Ministry provides a broad training of Biblical and ministry competency. Graduates from this programme are expected upon graduating to go into a variety of leadership positions in local churches and other Christian organisations. The curriculum has four main elements:

1. Spiritual Formation: Every week a morning is spent on discipleship and spirituality in its various components.
2. Bible: A wide range of courses in both Old and New Testaments are taught to provide a sold understand of Scripture and its application for us today. There is also a course on the nature of the Bible and Bible interpretation.
3. Theology: Courses on various areas of theology are included to provide a clear presentation of Christian doctrine and church history.
4. Ministry: Each semester there are courses on various aspects of Christian ministry and, in addition, ministry training groups which have a major practical component. The elective courses also tend to be practical ministry courses.
