Australian College Of Theology (ACT)
The Australian College of Theology was established in 1891 by the General Synod of the Church of England in Australia “to foster and direct the systematic study of Divinity, especially among the clergy”. From humble beginnings it has grown significantly and now offers a wide range of awards catering not only for the specialised needs of ministerial and missionary candidates but also for the needs of lay people interested in an understanding of the Christian faith and its implications for contemporary life.
The ACT, as a college, is primarily an examining and not a teaching body. Most of its courses must be studied through one of the college’s 31 approved institutions, and the Presbyterian Theological College (PTC) is one of these. The ACT is governed by a Board of Delegates which has a program of inspection and assessment of each approved institution to ensure that quality assurance criteria are met. The PTC approval for offering ACT awards is currently for the period 2002-2006 (inclusive). The CEO of the Board of Delegates is the Dean, currently Dr Mark Harding.
