A Two-Year Program With Practical Theological Courses, Introduction To Academic Theology, And Internship With A Mentor In A Local Congregation

The Practical Pastors and Leadership Program is a two-year program that includes practical theological courses, an introduction to academic theology, and internships with mentoring in a local church.

The program is aimed at people who have pastoral and leadership functions in church activities but who do not need a full academic theological education or who do not qualify for academic studies.

The Pastor’s Program is organized with a specific congregation, network, and/or denomination.

The program is not an academic, theological program. Still, students who wish to continue into a diploma program (one-year academic theological studies) or a bachelor’s degree can include the courses after completing mandatory tests. Upon completing the programme, the student receives a diploma in practical theology.

Grading System

STH uses a five-grade system commonly applied in higher education, where A represents the highest grade:

A = 90–100% of the total course points
B = 80–89%
C = 70–79%
D = 60–69%
F = Fail – awarded when a student does not meet the minimum course requirements

Some courses may only use the grades Pass (Godkänd) and Fail (Underkänd) instead of the letter grading system.
