Postgraduate Study

Distance Study NZ & International

BTI is passionate about enabling professionals to bring together their professional practice with their Christian worldview in life changing ways.

We offer postgraduate options for practitioners who wish to get a step ahead on the career ladder, at the same time as upskilling themselves in the latest research methods, leadership tools and practical experience.

All of our postgraduate options are offered wholly online with teaching and learning through BTI’s dedicated online learning platform, and using tools of remote working. Designed for busy professionals, our programmes are flexible enough to fit into your lifestyle.
