The Work of a Church Administrator

A ten-unit distance learning course by John Truscott and run by a team of UCAN Tutors, in partnership with Cliff College. Launched: February 2014.

A nationally recognised course of study prepared for Christians employed by a local church as a Church Administrator in some form.

This course has been prepared to offer a rigorous but highly practical foundation in the subject of office-based local church administration in the UK.

Head to our main course page here to find out more about what’s involved.

What’s the cost?

The course costs £450 and is available only to UCAN Administrator and Manager Members. (Sign up for an Administrator or Manager Membership today to take part, or get in touch with us via info@churchadministrators.net to upgrade a Connect membership.)

The cost includes registration, course materials, the marking of the three projects you submit and the involvement of a tutor throughout.

In addition, you will need to purchase Heinemann's 'Business & Administration' by Nigel Parton and Bernadette Watkins for Level 3 NVQ/SVQ which costs about £31 new (or alternatively, you can obtain a nearly new copy for a significantly lower price). 

What if my church can’t afford it?

We very much hope that your church will pay for you to take the course as they will undoubtedly receive the benefit of all that it gives. As for all our courses and training, UCAN maintains a small bursary fund to help support individual post-holders or churches who do not have sufficient resources to pay the fee in full. Get in touch with us via info@churchadministrators.net if you wish to discuss this further.
