Are you interested in school chaplaincy?

If you’re feeling God’s call to become a school chaplain, the Graduate Diploma of Divinity is a great way to round off your existing studies to give you the qualifications and skills you need to serve in this vital role.

By completing this diploma, you will be well-prepared to meet the high demand for school-based chaplains, as well as roles in youth and pastoral ministry within church contexts.

This course is endorsed by SU Australia, the nation’s largest employer of school chaplains. Graduates will be equipped with the knowledge and skills required by SU Australia, giving you a direct path to becoming a school chaplain.

Boost your skills and deepen your relationship with God with theological study through the one-year Graduate Diploma of Divinity.

What about other chaplaincy pathways?

Chaplains are not only found in schools. You may be exploring other avenues, such as hospital chaplaincy, army chaplaincy, prison chaplaincy, among many others.

We invite you to consider the Master of Divinity or the Master of Ministry: both of these degrees will provide you the training and expertise you need to thrive as a chaplain in a range of situations, as well as a whole range of other ministry opportunities, including missionary service and pastoral ministry.

These degrees also open up pathways for ordination, which is a prerequisite for some chaplaincy ministries. Speak to us today about which option best suits your circumstances and journey.
