Higher Education Third Party Arrangements (HETPA) allow another party (either in Australia or overseas) to deliver some or all of AC’s higher education courses on our behalf. HEPTA’s are an important part of the AC strategic plan to extend the national and international influence of the Christian faith and foster increasing Australian Transnational Education (TNE).  

Institutional expansion, intellectual curiosity, and internationalisation of the curriculum, research collaboration, shared scholarship and the challenge of working in cross-cultural environments all motivate HETPA’s. AC’s HETPA’s include:

• AsiaPacific Theological Seminary
• Hillsong College
• Iso Kirja College
• National Institute for Christian Education

Through the establishment of HETPA’s, AC is taking significant steps towards the achievement of its strategic goals.
