Administrative history

The Department of External Studies was set up in order to administer the Preliminary Theological Certificate Course, for laypeople who wanted to study a short theological course by correspondence. Evening courses and the Diploma of Biblical Studies were also offered. The department also coordinated the annual School of Theology seminars. In 2016 the operations of Moore Distance were taken over by the Registrar's Department.
