Focus Certificate In isiZulu

If you’re a Christian needing some basic training in order to better fulfil your role in your local church, then the Mukhanyo Focus Certificate is for you.

This programme provides a simple biblical foundation for academic learning and Christian ministry. This programme is not accredited, but is offered as church-based training at roughly a matric level.

This is a one year local learning programme for church members seeking to grow in their knowledge and understanding of Scripture. It’s designed to equip Christians for their role in the local church as pastors, elders, deacons, Sunday school teachers, church office workers or worship leaders.

Students will be spiritually enriched and able to apply what they have learned in their community and congregation. Strengthen church members in the use of their God given gifts to serve one another. It is directed towards the edifying of the Church and the evangelisation of the community.

The programme is available at our KwaMhlanga Campus and Rustenburg Advanced Learning Centre or at various Local Learning Sites.​

Focus includes 30 elective courses in several useful subjects and skills (listed below). Each takes about 40 hours of learning and includes short assignments and an exam. It’s presented by a Mukhanyo local learning tutor or lecturer at a registered Mukhanyo learning centre.

There are three unaccredited certificates which can be earned.

  • Certificate in Church Leadership
  • Certificate in Church Growth
  • Certificate in Church Life

Each certificate requires a student to pass 7 courses. Full-time students can earn a certificate within 6 months. Part-time students will take longer.
