Support

At ACOM, you may be online, but you’re not alone. One of the great aspects of studying with ACOM is that our students are able to stay in their place of ministry and mission, while engaging with their studies online and receiving personalised support from our team.

Student Engagement Managers

ACOM has an amazing team of dedicated Student Engagement Managers (SEMs) around the country whose primary role is to connect with and support our students in their studies. Our SEMs are all ministry practitioners themselves, so they understand the pressures that combining ministry and study in the midst of life brings. Their focus is on students and getting to know each one personally. This awesome team brings a personal connection and listening ear to students who are spread the length and breadth of the country.

Through supportive, proactive advice, encouragement and timely reminders, they are there to help keep their students on track with their studies and aware of where and how they can receive the academic and pastoral support they need. SEMs are the X factor that counters the anonymity of online learning, making sure that each student is known and supported with all they need to be successful in their studies so they can achieve their God-given dream.
