Studying with Ridley Online
As a Ridley Online student, you’ll join Monday evening zoom classes with leading practitioners and scholars online during term time, and undertake guided tasks in your own time during the week.
Alongside the online training, you’ll be able to meet with an experienced tutor once a month, who will support you to get the most out of the course.
- The Foundation Award

The Foundation Award
The Foundation Award enables those new to ministry to experience theological and ministerial study for the first time in an accessible and supportive environment, and experienced practitioners to go deeper in their theological grounding.
Delivered across three modules, the typical commitment is one module per term, making it the most accessible course we offer in terms of time commitment and flexibility of study.
- The Certificate in Higher Education

The Certificate in Higher Education
If you have a busy life, the online Cert HE will provide the theological and ministerial foundation you need to grow in your Christian calling. It is suitable for volunteers or those starting out in full-time ministry.
Successful completion of the course not only gives you the CertHE in Theology, Ministry and Mission, but also the chance to progress onto the full BA degree, taught onsite at our Cambridge campus.
