St Mark’s National Theological Centre is now open to public access. As we are taking a cautious approach to reopening our campus, some staff and faculty may be working from home at the time of your visit. If you would like to contact a specific staff member, we suggest contacting them beforehand to set up a time.
St Mark’s National Memorial Library will be open to public access from Tuesday 2 November. Please view our revised visiting hours and list of available library services.
All changes comply with COVID-19 Public Health Directions and other measures recommended by the ACT and Federal Health Departments. During this time, we ask all visitors to our site to assist us in following these important conditions.
Please read the following sections to find out the latest regarding our classroom set-up, library, and chapel services.
If you have contracted COVID-19, please let us know. We are concerned about your health and would want to know if you are unwell. We will also need to let our community know if they have been potentially exposed.
St Mark’s and CSU are already brilliantly set up for online learning. The majority of our students already study online, and you will be joining them for a time. We are ahead of the game and ready to support you in your learning.
Our online classrooms operate through Zoom.
Do not ask your subject coordinator for help with IT issues, but contact Student Central. We find that hearing lectures is the main challenge for most people, so try to understand the sound settings on your computer and within Zoom.
Even though there are drawbacks to not meeting face-to-face, online learning can strengthen community through strong and focussed discussions, both using the Discussion forum on your Interact2 site, and through the chat facility of Zoom.
Please check our residential timetable for the latest updates or contact your subject lecturer.
Chapel services continue to be held online from Tuesdays to Thursdays during Session. We will meet online on Wednesdays off session.
Check our Library Help section for details about library services.
While teaching and classes are going ahead as normal at this time, we recognise that students may experience disruption and pressures due to this situation.
Please make use of student support services or be in direct contact with your lecturer if you need support or a listening ear.
If you need extra time to complete assignments you can apply for special consideration. Information pertinent to students is being regularly updated on your student portal.
