The ENYA ECUMENICAL DIPLOMA PROGRAMMES are structured to afford participants the maximum opportunity for participation and ecumenical experiential learning through: country tutorial groups, individual self-management and implementation of direct experience working within their chosen field(s) of specialisation, interactive training with other participants, written assignments and case studies, opportunities from international exchanges, experiences, placements and encounters. Central to the Diploma Programme is the development of a deep self-understanding and an applied understanding of the principles and practises of combating discrimination in the areas of race, class, and gender.The Diploma Programmes are two year ecumenical programmes. During the two years, participants will attend a month long Foundation Course and a minimum of 4 Modules (usually two each year - 7 to 10 days long including travel days), plus other options. The courses are residential and will take place in different countries primarily in Eastern/Central/ Southern Europe. The Diploma Programmes are challenging and intensive courses for those who are interested in developing their skills and qualifications in various fields of church and community service. There is not a recognised system of accreditation (or competency based qualifications) currently being provided for by the church, non-profit organisations or state institutions, in most, if not all, of the Central and Eastern European countries (as well as some other European nations). The Diploma Programmes and Modules have been developed especially to fill this gap. The programmes are of the highest quality and designed specifically to increase the capacity of, and to improve and strengthen the provision of the children’s work, youth services and provisions, Christian Education, social, diaconial and community work, young women’s work. The Diploma Programmes are co-managed with partner Churches, members and partner organisations. There are presently 42 participants from 11 denominations and 17 countries; and it is envisioned and planned for another intake of 18 more participants in 2002.
The Diploma Programmes are competency based and all elements of the course must be completed and assessed. The structure of the Diploma Courses are designed around 7 areas of study/work:
Each Diploma Course has it's own Foundation Course which is offered every two years.
Module A: Management and Finances: required for all Diploma participants, plus, three other modules either from ENYA or approved events or courses from partner organisations.
Strategies, management and development: in cross-sectoral work, which will include at least two 2 projects, with an emphasis on professional development
Forms of informal and political education: which will include at least two case studies: one which ideally would focus on the participants local and regional realities and the other exploring an issue from a global context.
Internship or field placement:
Synthesis and Evaluation Week:
The aim is to provide a body of knowledge and a conceptual framework which will enable participants to look objectively and critically at their practise and learn from their experience.
The Diploma Programme, Foundation Courses and Modules will enable participants to develop their skills in a wide range of children's, youth, women and diaconial related issues, different theoretical approaches and dynamic and participatory methodologies.. These ecumenical leadership inter-active training modules, events and seminars are for those who work (or would like to work) in their Churches and communities.
Participants in the courses will come from all levels of the church and organisations, local or parish, diocesan/district/ presbytery or national level. People are welcomed from all walks of life. The events are open to all those interested. You do not need to be enrolled in one of the Diploma Programmes currently being offered, to participate in the Foundation Courses or Modules/Seminars. New modules are being designed over the next few months.. If you would like to see a course that is not offered here, please contact the Coordinators. While these modules are currently being run on an international level, it is possible to adapt the modules and run them on a national or local level if there is enough interest.
Registration Fees vary according to the length of the event, the country where the event is taking place, the country of the participant and the economic resources available to the individual applicant. Each participant will be asked to contribute to their Registration Fees on a sliding scale, depending on their income and according to their possibilities. Churches will also be invited to sponsor their candidate.
Limited scholarships will be available. Inquiries should be sent to the Coordinators and clearly indicated on your application form.
APPLICATION FORMS can be electronically printed from this site or obtained directly from the ENYA office or your National Network Facilitator. Once an application is received an interview and induction day will be organised with the applicant and with one of the members of the Coordinating Team, normally in the applicant's home country. Applications can be sent in at any time of the year but for the 2002 intake prospective participants are advised to submit their applications before November 20th, 2001. Participants will usually be able to begin the programme within three to four months after their completed application has being received. There will be 18 places available in 2002. Payment of registration fees, scholarships and internship programmes are organised with the Coordinators after acceptance.
There is no specific time requirements. Once admitted to the programme each participant may work at her/his own pace with the guidance of their assigned Diploma Programme Facilitator. It will take approximately two years to successfully complete all of the requirements.
