The University of Dayton
Catechist Formation Program
The
Catechist Formation Program is designed for Catholic school
teachers, catechists and other interested adults who want to
grow in their understanding of the Catholic faith.
Participants read and discuss a series of articles prepared by
faculty at the University of Dayton (OH) and published each
month during the school year in Catechist Magazine. This is a convenient
and affordable way for teachers, catechists, parents and
grandparents to increase their knowledge, enrich their faith,
and discover new ways to pass on faith to their students,
children or grandchildren.
A
continuing education unit (CEU) or graduate credit is available
to participants from the University of Dayton.
