Adelaide College of Divinity (ACD) was an accredited higher education provider offering diploma, associate and bachelor's degrees, graduate diplomas, master and doctoral degrees in ministry, it also was a Registered Training Organisation offering certificates and a diploma.
The ACD offered qualifications in its own right in the vocational and higher education sectors and, except for the period 2011–2013,[1] its teaching staff have formed the Department of Theology at Flinders University in the Faculties of Education, Humanities and Law.
The ACD brought together the Adelaide Theological Library,[2] from the collections of the three colleges which had merged for form ACD. The library has grown since the merger and in 2006 held over 60,000 volumes, including many dating back before 1850 and some to the 17th century.
Within the college grounds was a labyrinth designed by Adelaide stained glass artist Cedar Prest to honour the journeys of refugees and migrants. Symbols incorporated in the labyrinth include a large chalice and a central wafer – a reference to Holy Communion. A stylised version of the labyrinth was used as the college logo.
