FEES
The fee for each Certificate module is £280, which means a total of £2,800 for the 120 credit qualification. However, a discounted fee of £2,520, representing a saving of 10%, is available to those who pay before their course commences. Monastics and clergy who have a letter of introduction from their Bishop or superior and also pay at commencement may receive a further 10% discount. For students seeking financial help from local churches or other charitable bodies, the Institute is happy to supply a letter of provisional acceptance. The fee for re-taking a Module is £140.
Payments may be made online here, or by cheque. Arrangements can also be made to pay by bank transfer, if necessary, but transfer costs must be borne by the student.
