Rangeville Training Centre – School for Kingdom Living
The School for Kingdom Living is coordinated by Rangeville Community Church which is an ACOM (Australian College of Ministries) accredited Local Training Institute. ACOM is a Leadership Development Network designed to enable local churches to deliver quality assured training. The training which the School for Kingdom Living provides is the nationally accredited Cert 1V in Christian Ministry and Theology. This is a ‘competency based’ approach which targets specific practical skills and understandings. The School for Kingdom Living does not use the traditional chalk and talk approach but insteaduses an adult learning approach where learning is enhanced by students readily sharing their personal views and experiences. We believe that God has called the school for ‘training, equipping and resourcing for Kingdom Living’.
Up to the end of 2010, units for Cert 1V in Christian Ministry and Theology were taught as isolated subjects, but in March 2011, the School for Kingdom Living will provide the opportunity for students to study full time in order to gain their Cert 1V CMT in 1 year. Students can also study part time, as well as simply taking individual subjects of their own choice.
Location: The School of Kingdom Living will be held in the purpose built teaching rooms in Rangeville Community Church’s exciting new ministry complex opening early in 2011, at 362 Mackenzie Street Toowoomba.
