If you want to do faith-based study without going to college, Regents LIFE could be your answer. And with several new courses planned for 2024 it’s a great time to check it out. Joel Turton gave Chris Rolfe a sneak peek.
Have you ever wanted to study elements of your faith in more depth but without the commitment of a college course or undergraduate degree? Turns out lots of people do, and that sparked the launch of Regents LIFE late last year.
Regents LIFE, explains teaching and research assistant Joel Turton, offers a selection of bite-sized online faith-based courses designed to be accessible to all.
“We had the idea towards the end of the last academic year,” he says.
“We wanted to do something different and new in addition to the undergraduate and postgraduate degrees and the Ministry Foundation Certificate which we already offer at Regents.”
Regents LIFE provides introductory-level courses to different aspects of faith that people can self-facilitate.
“It’s quite different to doing a degree, and very laid-back. You can access the sessions online as and when you please and each video is around 20 minutes long, with interactive elements and opportunities to reflect,” Joel explains.
Each course is taught by a member of the Regents team, he adds, with content centred around specific topics.
THIS ISN'T THE END OF THE STORY!
