Welcome to CareyLocal!
Learn, grow, and be tranformed – wherever you are!
CareyLocal is an exciting new initiative designed to build biblical foundations for church volunteers, ministry and mission leaders, and anyone wanting to grow in their discipleship.
Classes are taught online with one of Carey’s lecturers an evening each week. Form a cohort of ten from your church or organisation (or a combination of churches and organisations) for semester two, and we will waive the tuition fees completely (normally $787 per course per student).
Terms and Conditions apply.
Courses in semester two include Mission of God with Emma Stokes (Tuesdays, 7-9pm, starting 18 July) and Introduction to the New Testament with Dr Jonathan Robinson (Wednesdays, 7-9pm, starting 19 July).
Students will be completing the course for credit and will be required to submit assignments.
We have a dedicated team to support CareyLocal – we are here for you.
Terms and conditions
A cohort can consist of ten or more students from a group of churches. Students must meet the requirements for admission, formally enrol in the course through Carey, and form a class at one church or site for the duration of the course.
