Worldview began in 1956 as Tasmania's first residential Bible training college to prepare women and men for mission. To this day it continues as one of the last remaining residential programs in Australia, maintaining a missionary training heartbeat through the discipline of academic study integrated with community living.

Worldview's campus sits on 40 acres of farmland on the outskirts of Launceston. Over the years the original homestead made way for purpose-built buildings, including a dining hall, staff housing, family accommodation block, and two unit blocks.
