Certificates and diplomas
Course Options
The British Bible School offers a
flexible programme of study leading to a
number of internal exit awards. In
addition to our two-year diploma of
Applied Biblical Studies, we
offer a one-year diploma and intermediate
certificates for part-time students.
The total number of module-points to be
attained in order to be awarded the
two-year diploma has been set at 320,
which would equate to at least 3,200
hours of study.
There are a number of introductory
modules that are essential to progression
and some core modules required for
certain exit awards, but beyond that
there is a good degree of latitude with
regards to choice of modules and the
order in which they are undertaken.
Awarded to full-time students who have
successfully completed the first year of
our Applied Biblical Studies
course. This may be built upon through
further full-time or part-time studies.
The one year course provides a good
introduction to advanced Biblical
studies, covers the Biblical historic
timeline and helps develop good Bible
study practice within the context of
mission.
Awarded to full-time students who have
completed the second year of our
Applied Biblical Studies course.
This is currently the maximum award we
offer.
The second year of the two year course
builds on the first year by examining the
work of the Hebrew prophets, other Hebrew
literature and the remainder of the New
Testament letters.
During the second year of the two year
course, students work on a special
extended research paper on an agreed
subject of their choice. This provides
students with an opportunity to explore
an area of particular interest whilst
also enabling them to further develop
their personal study skills.
