The Certificate in Catholic Theology is an eight-month program that provides the essential Catholic theological framework to understand the faith more fully. It provides the necessary vocabulary to explain, and defend the Catholic faith. It is an opportunity to learn and grow in discipleship, and discover the beauty of the Church’s intellectual tradition. The sessions are taught, one Saturday per month, by experienced professors and practitioners.
