Ruwach Training School (RTS) offers the opportunity for deeper study and is open to students from local churches, as well as those from further afield who wish to study by distance learning.

We welcome:

• Every believer who has a hunger and passion to learn more of the Word of God. 
• Every believer who wants to prepare for ministry. 
• Every believer who wants to find out their purpose and calling in the Kingdom of God.

Ruwach Training School (RTS) was birthed in 2004, operating alongside Ruwach Christian Church in Haywards Heath, West Sussex, U.K. The School was established by Pastor Jack James, whose personal ministry and experience in the Bible College field spans more than 30 years.

Course Structure

The School offers courses at Foundation, Certificate and Diploma level. Each subject is taught by means of 1 hour lectures, which take place at Ruwach, Eastern Road at 8 pm on Monday evenings during term-time. The lectures are also available online. To pass a subject, the student must listen to all the lectures and attain a minimum of 50% in the assessments, which may take the form of examinations, study assignments or short essays.

Foundation Level

Students who have not undergone basic training at Ruwach Christian Church may be asked to complete the Foundation Level requirement before enrolling on the Certificate in Ministry. The course consists of seven one-session courses. The Foundation Level certificate is awarded to students who have studied all seven subjects and passed a short examination on each subject.

Certificate in Ministry / Diploma in Ministry

Certificate and Diploma courses vary in length and carry a proportional number of credits. The Certificate in Ministry is awarded to students who achieve 200 credits and the Diploma in Ministry to those who gain 400 credits. Students may be asked to study some compulsory subjects and can choose others to add to these.

RTS has helped me understand the true meaning of God's Word and how to use it in everyday life.

Janet

It’s just so inspirational!

Martyne

There is a teacher at hand who I can talk to if I get confused (which often happens!) and I find it really good to be in an environment that is free of distractions.

RTS adds a new and genuinely exciting depth to the Bible and has helped me in so much of life and in maturing as a son of God.
