Distance Education

Distance Study


Study by distance mode will involve a set of notes for each unit supplied by the PTC, the regular submission of assignments and the opportunity to discuss issues by phone or email with a member of staff.

The following units are available for study by distance mode though the PTC.  Please check the Enrolment Form regarding when these units are offered as they are not all offered every semester.



The following units are offered through Presbyterian Youth, through the Partnership Programme, in conjunction with the PTC.  Please contact PY if you wish to enrol in the below units.



The ACT has produced information for all distance students and may see the Distance Handbook here


The only award which may be entirely undertaken by distance study through the PTC at this stage is the Certificate in Bible and Ministry. The 200 level units may be taken towards the Diploma of Theology/Ministry and the Advanced Diploma of Ministry. LA003A&B may be taken within any award up to BTh.
