ACOM was birthed over 75 years ago (1941) as the Churches of Christ in NSW Theological College (Woolwich, Sydney). ACOM has produced thousands of graduates serving as ministers, evangelists, lay leaders, welfare workers, teachers, missionaries and church planters.
Originally a campus-based residential college, ACOM now specialises in flexible delivery. It is a hybrid of online learning mixed with targeted face-to-face student support through formation groups and themed workshops.
The sponsorship of Churches of Christ in NSW & ACT as an institutional member is an empowering gift that enables ACOM to pursue its mission and partner with other fresh hope initiatives such as: The Tops Conference Centre, Fresh Hope Engage, and Fresh Hope Care.
On 1st January 2017 the Christian and Missionary Alliance of Australia joined ACOM as a second institutional member. This partnership adds the strength and experience of the Alliance movement who has a presence in over 81 countries around the world. The sponsorship of the Christian and Missionary Alliance of Australia has established the Alliance Institute of Mission, a centre of excellence within the Australian College of Ministries.
