Diploma in Christian Studies (Theology) (Level 5)

The DipCS Theology aims to meet the learning needs of Salvation Army officer cadets and other students who may go on to take leadership and ministry roles in The Salvation Army and other Christian denominations. The DipCS Theology encourages cadets and students to develop a deeper understanding of the Biblical story and reflect on Christian life and faith. It provides them with an introduction to Biblical studies, theological studies, missional studies and spiritual formation, preparing them to live out the Gospel of Christ by engaging thoughtfully and compassionately in the world.

The Salvation Army Booth College of Mission consists of the School for Officer Training, the School of Bible and Mission, the Centre for Leadership Development, Youth Mission Training and an on-site Early Childhood Education Centre.

Our Mission: To prepare people for the realities of ministry in the Salvation Army, to equip them to live and work as servants of Christ throughout Aotearoa New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa: and to inspire them to engage as partners with the triune God in mission and ministry that transform our nations.
