Certificate in Management
The Certificate in Management was developed as a cooperative endeavour between Booth College and Simon Fraser University. The program seeks to provide Salvation Army officers and others with basic management knowledge and skills necessary for success in their field of ministry. The curriculum is offered in modules of three courses each. Each module commences with a six-day class period in which three courses are introduced. The courses are then completed over the following six months through a combination of online and independent study. Students are required to take all three courses of each module.
Bachelor of Arts (General) in Biblical and Theological Studies (CFOT Integrated)
The CFOT Integrated Program is offered in cooperation with the College for Officer Training.

After the completion of the CFOT component of the program, students finish their degree requirements directly with Booth College. The program prepares students for Salvation Army officership by providing them with foundational knowledge in Biblical and Theological studies, an understanding of the contemporary world and the ministry skills necessary for their work as Salvation Army Officers.

The Post-CFOT Bachelor of Arts program builds upon the learning and experience of Salvation Army Officers. The program builds on the two years of study at the College for Officer Training.
