Teaching

In 2006, at the invitation of the Archbishop of Cape Town, and following a successful exploratory workshop there in 2004, three centre members (Norman Doe, Mark Hill, and Anthony Jeremy)  delivered a two-week series of canon law workshops for clergy and church lawyers in the Anglican Province of Southern Africa, at Johannesburg, Durban, East London and Cape Town.

Occasional courses have been run for Anglican clergy.  In 2000, the Centre held a meeting with the Bishops of the Church in Wales which resulted in the Centre running a series of course for clergy at diocesan level. In 2015, the Centre ran a workshop on law in ministerial education at Harvard Divinity School. Since then Centre members have set up, for example, training in English canon law in the Diocese of London (run by Stephen Coleman).

The annual John Lewis Memorial Lecture is held as part of the LLM in Canon Law.

Professor John Lewis, an associate of the Centre and professor at Windsor University Ontario, taught regularly from 1993 until his death in 1999.

The memorial lecturers have included: Professor Edward Gaffney (Valparaiso University School of Law), David Harte (Newcastle Law School), Frank Cranmer (then Principal Clerk, House of Commons), Revd Canon John Rees (Provincial Registrar Canterbury), Paul Colton (Bishop of Cork), Professor Richard Helmholz (University of Chicago), Professor Pieter Coertzen (University of Stellenbosch, South Africa), Dr Alison Mawhinney (Bangor Law School), Professor Leon van den Broeke (VU Amsterdam), and Professor Edward Morgan (KU Leuven).

Since 1999, each year Norman Doe lectures on Anglican canon law on the Gratianus Programme at the University of Paris XI, a doctoral formation programme in law and religion.
