How to form a CareyLocal cohort:
Form a cohort from your church or organisation (or a combination of churches and organisations). It is easy!
Nominate a co-ordinator to manage the gathering of students into a cohort, register the group with Carey, and support students complete the enrolment process.
Provide a place for the cohort to meet which has the required tech for online classes.
Provide a facilitator (this might be your co-ordinator or someone comfortable with facilitating group discussions as directed by the Lecturer (no teaching is required by the Facilitator).
There is no minimum or maximum cohort size. If your cohort is small, you could consider reaching out to other churches / organisations in your area to form a combined cohort.
What Carey will provide
The Carey lecturers will guide students through material, provide opportunities for discussion and reflection, and facilitate wider conversations across the cohorts around the country.
The CareyLocal team is available to provide you with support, advice, promotional materials and tech support.
Our Student Support team is also available to cohorts for academic support.

I love CareyLocal because it has opened up our theological college to so many who wouldn’t otherwise have walked through its doors. People of all ages and stages of faith from Baptist churches right across Aotearoa are coming together to open scripture in community guided by expert teaching from Carey’s fantastic lecturing team. In my view, there’s no better way to study the Bible!
