Welcome to the Catechetical Institute, offering adult Catholic catechesis for those interested in growing in knowledge of the faith, and catechist training for those who teach the faith.
Courses are non-credit, and students will not be tested or graded, unless they would like the course to be counted toward their Archdiocesan requirements for catechists training. These students will take an online assessment through the Office for Catechetical Formation. Courses that may be applied toward the Archdiocesan Religion Certificate include:
CI 1100 Overview of the Old Testament
CI 1200 Overview of the New Testament
CI 2100 The Person of Jesus
CI 2200 Foundations of the Church
CI 3100 Sacraments of Initiation
CI 3200 Sacraments of Healing and of Vocation
CI 4100 Christian Anthropology
CI 4200 Catholic Moral Teachings
Current locations include:
- Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary
- Archbishop Ryan H.S.
- Bishop Shanahan H.S.
- Lansdale Catholic H.S.
- Neumann- Goretti H.S.
- Archbishop Wood H.S.
- Little Flower H.S.
- Bishop McDevitt H.S.
- Conwell-Egan H.S.
- St. Pius H.S.
Additional high school locations will be added in the future. Courses will be scheduled in such a way that all courses will be offered in rotation at each location. Additional courses not associated with the Archdiocesan requirements are also planned.
Courses in the Catechetical Institute meet one evening per week for four weeks. The cost per course is $50.00. Students may register for courses up through the first night of class.
