1 WHAT IS FIELD EDUCATION
1.1 Field Education (FE) provides practical training of the student
in a chosen area of Christian service under a planned supervised
program.
1.2 The emphasis in FE is on learning, rather than serving, with
appropriate guidance and written evaluation by a supervisor well
versed in the particular ministry.
1.3 The attachment can be either with a local church or a parachurch
organization.
2 PURPOSE OF FIELD
EDUCATION
2.1 The aim of FE is to help students develop attitudes and abilities
that will enhance their effectiveness in Christian service.
2.2 FE should also provide opportunities for students to interact
with issues of fieldwork as well as integrate their college course
work into their individual spheres of ministry in a biblical
manner.
3 THE ROLE OF THE
FIELD EDUCATION DEPARTMENT
3.1 The FE Department is established to help students to acquire,
reinforce and refine their ministry knowledge and skills, and
to assess their Christian character.
3.2 The FE Department also co-ordinates requests from Christian
leaders for students’ postings. Interesting openings are
brought to the students’ attention and posted on the Department’s
notice board (located outside Room 1-308) to widen students’
choices of
assignments.
3.3 The FE Department maintains files on all students for record
and future reference.
