Diploma in Applied Spirituality
Diploma in Applied Spirituality
This course runs for two years and is aimed at Christian students who already have a basic level of religious education and are interested in personal spiritual growth. It is modelled on a course from the Christian Leadership University (CLU), a private religious education University in the United States. Completion of the course is a prelude to the award of a Degree for those who want to further their religious education.
