WE’RE LOOKING FORWARD TO 2026!
If you’re reading this and thinking about doing college - you DEFINITELY should! Not too long ago, we both were Bible college students and we can genuinely say that it was such an important season of growing faith, making life-long friends and it’s even where we really got to know each other too!
Now as the Next Gen Pastors, one of our biggest passions is teaching the generation coming through that life with Jesus is the MOST FUN and FULFILLING. College is definitely part of that! Whether you know your next step or not, Curate College is a great opportunity to explore the foundations of faith, be equipped and to do life along some of the best people too. We can’t wait to do the journey alongside you!

COURSE SUMMARY
The Certificate of Christian Ministry - Internship (CertCM) provides a pathway for emerging Christian leaders to pursue ministry formation and theological study while serving their churches. Students develop knowledge, skills and experience by connecting their own reflection on the Christian faith with real life practical contexts, equipping them for service in the church. The CertCM also provides a pathway into further study for personal and professional development. Students spend around half their time in ministry placement (including 210 hours per semester of Supervised Ministry Practice), while also grounding themselves in core Bible, Theology, Mission and Discipleship courses.
“IT IS SUCH AN HONOUR AND PRIVILEGE TO JOURNEY ALONGSIDE OUR AMAZING STUDENTS AND WITNESS WHAT JESUS IS DOING IN AND THROUGH THEIR LIVES. I WHOLEHEARTEDLY BELIEVE THAT CURATE COLLEGE IS FOUNDATIONAL TO WHEREVER GOD LEADS THEM IN LIFE.”
