Bill Stevenson's suggestions on April 1, 2005:

I would recommend two 6-month periods of study and discussion.

Each would be about 26 Saturdays for each of the periods. I would suggest a Tuesday or Wednesday night meeting too.
They would be able to earn two certificates of course completions and a certificate for ministry.
The latter would be based on how they apply the studies. So not everyone would probably earn such right away.
