We have never before felt such urgency as we do today in regard to the training of Christian leaders for churches, ministries and business.
The very heart of ALC is to practically equip, raise and release leaders into all nations with a Christ centred foundation carrying an anointing that will sustain them in every area of their life and ministry.
One of the greatest miracles we see is lives permanently transformed to reflect the amazing character of God.
Annesbrook Leadership College provides training that embraces practical equipping and personal development partnered with Christian theology taught from the Word of God.
We pray that as you read the contents of this prospectus you will also prayerfully consider joining us on this incredible journey for 2016.
Blessings,
Board Chair Annesbrook Leadership College
Senior Pastors Annesbrook Church
We are very privileged to be part of what God is doing in the lives of those whom God has brought to our
Leadership College.
ALC 2016 | 5 ALC
Annesbrook Leadership College plays a vital role in equipping and preparing people to become leaders. Our passion is for balanced and grounded leaders to be released from ALC with the express purpose of bringing the integrity and ethics of Biblical leadership to wherever they serve, whether in volunteer organisations, churches or as employees in any workplace.
We are empowered by the understanding that values of truth, justice, compassion, kindness, wisdom, humility and integrity are, among many more, vital leadership attributes and are developed within a life of discipleship following Jesus. We move in high expectation believing that, if there are things wrong with our world, we can be part of the solution. ALC graduates have grown into many aspects of leadership in both Church and community, or into pathways of higher learning where they continue to learn and prepare for a life God has called them to.
every life and environment they touch.
We are intentional about preparing leaders to simply be a blessing to others in the name of Jesus. to learn, seek, research, reason and achieve in the love and grace of God is our greatest privilege and highest priority.
There is an academic side to the course and a practical side to the course. Both emphases work together to equip and to train. Our greatest desire, however, is not to teach students what to think, but to teach them how to think. To prepare minds
Deans of Annesbrook Leadership College
At ALC we have a passion to equip people for leadership in a Biblical context and to excite them to head into their future with a powerful conviction of truth, courage, confidence and determination to positively affect

ALC has valued and skilful staff members who lecture and are also involved in special areas of service within the College.
Assistant Dean
It is a great privilege for me to be working for ALC as the Assistant Dean. I would never have imagined what God had in store for me when I left a banking career to study theology. After graduating with a BTh degree from Bishopdale Theological College (BTC) in 2012, I joined the
ALC staff in a part-time capacity. As the college has grown my position has developed into the full-time role I currently hold as Assistant Dean. This involves lecturing, overseeing curriculum development and delivery, and other administrative responsibilities. I also work part-time as a musician and tutoring for BTC.
Having grown up as a Pastor’s kid and being involved in various areas of Church life, my passion is to see people grow into maturity and wisdom by providing Biblical inspiration for
Christ-like transformation.
Intern Manager
I joined the excellent ALC staff as Intern Manager upon graduating from the Diploma in
Christian Ministry Internship course in 2012. My previous ‘hats’ include management roles in the financial, health and retail sectors. Currently I assume the privileged role of Mum to two beautiful girls and I am also a qualified Living Wisdom presenter. All of these skill sets are extremely valuable in my role as Intern Manager and I use them to support the students and their Placement Managers to achieve their goals.
My desire is to see every person I work with embrace and realise as much of their God given potential as possible. I am honoured and privileged to continually see God moving with grace and power through the ALC internship platform.
Currently ALC is in the process of applying for Private Training Establishment status. Documents for application have been prepared and will be assessed by New Zealand Qualifications Authority. It is our desire to have the PTE status confirmed in 2015 or early 2016. Part of the process will be the establishment of a new Governance Board.
Membership on this Governance Board will be representative of the wider senior Leadership of the Annesbrook
Church which will be recognised as the “Owners” of the PTE.

So you’ve come this far. You’ve picked up the prospectus or clicked on the mouse to find my testimonial... What would you like to know? What do you want to hear? That ALC is mind-blowing and life-changing? Well, quite frankly it is, IF you want to be there.
I didn’t really know what I was signing myself up for when
I applied to study at ALC. I expected God talk, lectures,
Bible readings and assignments but what I’ve encountered over the past two years has been much more. The inspiring classes, the heart-felt conversations between students and the intimate times of prayer and worship are just some of the experiences from ALC that have added great value to my life.
Then there’s the internship! I was so blessed to undertake many varied projects at the church I attend; from administration to worship to teaching Sunday school lessons...
But I think that some of the greatest moments for me were seeing a concept learned about in class, a mere word on the white board, become a reality in day-to-day life. Imagine yourself talking with fellow students about the significance of the word ‘integrity’, or ‘honour’, or ‘accountability’, only to find yourself faced with a real life situation weeks later that needs the kind of nutting out discussed in class.
This might sound cheesy but I believe that the teaching, the wonderful lectures themselves and the internship programme have equipped me, spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally (the whole she’bang) to better walk along life’s journey, and I’m so grateful for that.
Thinking about Annesbrook Leadership College? If you want to be there, if you give it your all and allow God to move, there is potential for a life-changing ride ahead.
Annesbrook Leadership College is constantly innovating and growing. ALC has developed a joint venture partnership with Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology (NMIT) allowing us to provide approved national qualifications in Christian Ministries (Internship).
The courses are Certificate in Christian Ministries (Internship) Level four and Diploma in Christian Ministry Internship
Level five. Besides the national qualifications, there are other options not attracting national credits but sharing, in a limited way, the same course content.
The Certificate in Christian Ministries (Internship) is a one year programme seeking to provide students with the opportunity to build a core set of values through a range of ministry subjects while undertaking practical Internship experience in a Church or not-for-profit organisation.
It is designed with an emphasis on personal development, practical skills, and ethical understanding. The programme will provide a pool of skilled people, staff and volunteers who will become involved in Church and/or community initiatives, thereby providing support to the community. The programme combines academic study with practical application for increased understanding, and the development of applicable personal skills for employment or entry into further tertiary study.
The aim of the programme is to provide an initial pathway of formal study for working in Church related ministries or charitable work either in New Zealand or abroad.
It is intended that the programme lays a foundation for the Level 5 Diploma in Christian Ministry Internship and so provide the necessary transferable skills to be a volunteer/career worker in a range of employment environments and across the spectrum of Churches, not-for-profit organisations and initiatives and/or pathway into further related tertiary education.

1. Leadership Foundations: Leadership Development involves developing a variety of essential leadership skills and attitudes, including communication skills. a. Leadership development includes such essentials as ethics, time management, personal integrity, goal setting and many others. b. Communication includes developing skills in both written and oral communications and includes practical elements.
2. Spiritual Growth: This course investigates the disciplines that are adopted in the process of developing a discipled relationship with God. These disciplines include meditation, prayer, study, simplicity, solitude and others. There is also a strong initial emphasis on the discovery of personal Spiritual gifts.
3. Worldview: This course is a journey of discovery of varying world views, their development in the contemporary age, the tensions they may create and concluding how a Biblical world view will direct the choices and direction of Disciples of Christ. There is a significant Church History component in this course.
4. Narrative Theology: This course is a summary of the Biblical Story recognising it as God’s story of creation, fall, redemption and restoration. The course in general regards the narrative passages to follow the direction of a metanarrative and identifies the narratives contributing to that.

The Christian Ministry Internship Courses are awarded by NMIT in conjunction with ALC. The qualifications will be dual badged with both NMIT and ALC logos.
1. Leader Development: This course develops leadership skills, ethics and attitudes at a more demanding level than the Certificate course. The course has similar topics to the Certificate (L4) course but at a higher level of understanding. a. Leadership includes staff management, labour law, integrity, credibility b. Communication raises skill levels with more practical elements and special forms relating to specialist groups such as the mentally ill, bereaved, geriatric and those in palliative care
2. Spiritual Growth: The course investigates further those taught in the Certificate level but with deeper insights and applications related to “Kingdom Living”.
3. Biblical Interpretation: This course investigates the principles of literary exegesis and hermeneutics to acquaint the student with the tools to further their Biblical study skills and understanding.
4. Theology: This course is a voyage of discovery through the essential theology of the Bible and its application to us today. There is special focus on Theology developed in the NT letter to the Roman Church. It investigates the place of a theological understanding in the experience of the contemporary Disciple and the purpose of theology in a contemporary worldview. There is also a component investigating how movements of a theological nature in history have impacted current Christian expression and understanding.
5. Practical Internship: Comprises 22 and a half hours a week and, as with the Certificate, is a placement in a practical situation commensurate, where possible, with the interests and already present skills identified in the initial interview.
National Qualifications courses are able to be funded through a Study Link application for student loans and allowances.

Please Note:
ALC has operated in 2014/15 in both Nelson and Upper Hutt serving Churches there. The course is residential in
Nelson but Block Courses are provided each month in the regional locations. NMIT is seeking Tertiary Education
Commission approval to expand those locations to include Timaru and Christchurch in 2016.
Internship Management, grading and all moderation will be overseen from Nelson. Local Placement Managers will oversee individual interns and placements in the regions under Nelson management.
ALC delivers the curriculum on behalf NMIT and is accountable to comply with all National Qualification requirements through NMIT.
