School of Educational Theology [SET]

The School of Educational Theology [SET] provides opportunities for you to prepare as a teacher for Lutheran schools or to undertake professional development if you are already teaching in those schools. While the Board for Lutheran Education Australia [BLEA] is responsible for the accreditation of teachers, the courses and programs provided by ALC through the SET help you to become eligible for that accreditation as a teacher, as a Christian Studies teacher and for leadership roles in Lutheran schools.

If you are preparing to become a teacher:

ALC does not offer a full teacher education program. However, if you are studying to become a teacher, or intending to do so, ALC offers you the opportunity to complete the requirements to be eligible for accreditation as a teacher in a Lutheran school while you are studying at another university. This program is called the Lutheran Strand.

The Lutheran Strand consists of three components:

If you complete the Lutheran Strand you will receive a vocational certificate from ALC which indicates that you are eligible to be accredited as a teacher in a Lutheran school.

If you are not able to participate in the vocational component of the Lutheran Strand, the pertinent ALC units from the Diploma in Theology (Education) are available for cross-crediting into your university degree. This could be valuable in supporting your application to teach in a Lutheran school.

Completing a teaching practicum [particularly the final one] in a Lutheran school could also be helpful in an application to teach in a Lutheran school.

If you are a teacher in a Lutheran school:

ALC offers the following postgraduate courses to help to prepare you for leadership roles in the school and also as a teacher of Christian Studies:

Units in these courses are available to off campus students.

Graduate attributes:

Graduate attributes [PDF] are the learning outcomes that ALC seeks to realise in all graduates. Within the School of Educational Theology ALC provides an environment where students are encouraged to take responsibility for developing specialised attributes.
