Common Award
Common Awards are qualifications for ordinands within the Church of England.[1] Before 2014, Theological Education Institutions within the Church of England had used local universities to accredit their qualifications but since September 2014 they have been offering awards common across all institutions, accredited by Durham University.[2] The intention behind the move to Common Award was to offer greater coherence and consistency across training institutions.
The programmes developed offer a range of courses from undergraduate introductions (Certificate in Theology, Ministry and Mission) to postgraduate studies (MA in Theology, Ministry and Mission).[3]
