The institution has been accredited by the Swedish National Agency for Higher Education to award degrees in the field of theology (Swedish: kandidatexamen i teologi and masterexamen i teologi, Bachelor of Theology and Master of Theology) as well as in the field of human rights (Swedish: kandidatexamen i mänskliga rättigheter).
