Level 1 Foundations Enrollment Options

  • ENRICHMENT (In-Person):

West London Alliance Church members can participate in-person for the “Biblical Counselling Enrichment (BCE)” Level 1 Certificate.

The first semester will run classes monthly on Saturday’s from 9-11:30am over October to December 2024. The 2nd Semester classes will run monthly over January to March 2025. This is designed to introduce biblical counselling in non-formal settings, and provide training to increase the quality of care in our local church.
