Faculty
Ridley has a ‘mixed faculty’ with each member bringing specialist knowledge, experience and skills to our students. All have church ministry experience, some write major commentaries, others speak on significant platforms in Australia and overseas. Every member of faculty is dedicated to our students’ learning, is accessible and offers students strong mentoring and support.
