Not so fast! This is something being developed for learners who show aptitude, interest and desire to learn more.

They will need to fulfil strict criteria to be eligible for this programme which will operate in a separate window to the Diploma but tie in and be complementary to it.

Those who fulfil the criteria can expect a bursary to help cover the costs of flights, accommodation and study costs for a carefully structured intensive learning programme.

There will be optional exams, you can decide not to sit them. Their function is more to help you focus and for those looking to evidence their learning to be able to teach primary and secondary school level Islamic studies.

There is one exception, those who would like to apply for the Arabic abroad programme must sit the exams to be eligible.
