Here at Vineyard College, we offer you the opportunity to grow and develop your ministry skills through mentored internships and selected academic studies.

We want to train you to minister effectively while you work in your own church or organisation and our aim is to produce practitioners who are thinkers.

Most of our courses have a highly practical emphasis, so you get to try out what you have learned in real life situations. They are also designed to be challenging and encouraging.

We want to give you effective biblical and ministry training that enables you to be an effective person in your church and community.

Our mission:

To equip you to work and serve in all types of churches and community organisations through quality training and mentored internships in the context of a culturally diverse society.

Our training:

• We train by an internship/apprenticeship model
• We aim to produce practitioners rather than theoreticians
• We aim to keep our fees as low as possible while providing you with quality training
• We wish to avoid raising an academic bar to ministry
• We welcome the activity and gifts of the Holy Spirit
• We aim to present the message of Jesus in a culturally relevant way

Our core values:

• Worship and intimacy with God
• Grace and liberty, rather than legalism
• Mercy and compassion to the lost, the broken and the poor
• The promotion of unity, embracing the work of renewal that the Holy Spirit is doing in the wider body of Christ
• The sovereignty of the Holy Spirit, meaning flexibility of structures, values, traditions and practices
