They offer courses that prepare Ordinands to serve as assistant ministers and potential incumbents, and Readers for missional, pastoral and leadership roles in the local church. These ministries may be full-time or part-time, self-supporting, stipendiary or non-stipendiary.

The programmes are offered part time and are deeply context-based, with a clear focus on equipping individual students for servant leadership in service of God in the church in the dioceses of Durham and Newcastle.

Training programmes for ordinands and readers are delivered over two or three years, with flexibility for longer or shorter periods.
