Yes. This course is weighted at 12 credits, and will be able to go toward any future studies you do at BTC or most registered theological colleges.
The lectures will be presented online using the MS Teams platform (which you will be given access to as part of your registration). Most lectures will be facilitated by Rev Mark Odendaal, a worshipper with over 20 years experience in Worship Leading, with some guest lecturers as well.
We have a reduced price for 3+ worship leaders from a church. However, if you would like to enroll your entire worship team, we are open to discussing a bulk course rate. Please contact [email protected]
