Accreditation
All courses are recognised by the University of Pretoria (through the Enterprises division and the Centre for Faith and Community of the Faculty of Theology and Religion). courses are also fully acknowledged by Signo Professional Association for CPD points. Coram Deo students who wish to have these points allocated to their portfolio can register with SignoPro. https://forms.gle/B7f4mBtDbxFit3FN7
Note that participants may choose to do this programme as a Successfully completed course or an Attendance course. The successfully completed certificate issued by UP requires an additional reflective assignment. Your lecturer might substitute the assignment with an in-class assignment. The reflective assignment carries 3 additional CPD points with SignoPro.
Attendance certificates are awarded by the University of Pretoria Enterprises division and requires an additional fee of R400-R800 that is paid separately when requested. This fee is waived for students enrolled for all the CPD modules (COP or CPD). For those enrolled for the full CPD series or the Combined Practitioner Supervision programme the certificate fees are included but a reflective assignment must be completed. Unfortunately it takes quite some time for UP to issue certificates but on our end your Coram Deo certificate confirms that you have completed the course.
