Studying at Ridley London
Training at Ridley London is delivered online to support our core aim of providing accessible, in-depth and comprehensive training in Theology, Ministry and Mission for all God’s people.
Applied in its approach and design, training with Ridley London will enable you to consolidate your existing experiences and to grow as a mature, wise and faithful disciple of Christ.
The training takes place via a mixture of online asynchronous tasks (tasks set and undertaken in your own time) and online synchronous zoom classrooms (coming together as a class). The zoom classroom sessions are delivered between 6pm and 8pm on a Monday evening during term time. Utilising a flip-classroom approach the course is suitable for people with a range of academic experience.
The training is based around the Cert HE in Theology, Ministry and Mission validated by Durham University. Successful completion of the Cert HE provides the opportunity to progress onto the BA in Theology, Ministry and Mission taught at our Cambridge campus.
For those unsure whether this level of commitment is for them, or those without the necessary entry grades, we offer a Taster Module to help discern next steps and as an access route onto the course.

More about the Taster Module
The Taster Module provides an opportunity for you to experience study online and to engage with the course without having to commit to a whole year.
The taster module can be ‘audited’ or taken for credit. If audited the taster module does not count towards the Cert HE. However, should you take the taster module for-credit, then it would count towards the Cert HE should you choose to progress.
The taster module can be undertaken in the year prior to further study on the Cert HE or, in the first term of the Cert HE itself.

More about the Cert HE
Whether you are a volunteer in full-time employment, a full-time parent, or starting out in full-time ministry, the Cert HE will provide the theological and ministerial foundation you need to grow in your calling.
Students undertaking the Cert HE typically work with children and young people in some capacity and undertake study in children's and family ministry, youth ministry, pastoral ministry, discipleship (reflective practice), old testament, new testament and Christian history and doctrine.
For those who aren’t don’t wish to focus on youth, children's and family ministry, there is an option to undertake an independent learning project in an area of your choice.
