The IoJ runs modules on Jainism in the Diploma and Certificate levels in Religion at Birkbeck College, University of London. Around 500 people complete the course over five years. The course forms the basis of the IoJ’s education programme, which starts in 2008. Prizes are also established for undergraduate and postgraduate essays on subjects related to Jainism at the School of Oriental and African Studies. In 2009, the courses were offered throughout the community and so far over 1,000 attendees have been awarded certificates in the UK, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia and Nairobi.
