Advanced Continuing Education Certificate in Religious Education

Online Program

The Advanced Continuing Education Certificate in Religious Education is designed for catechists and teachers in Parish Schools of Religion who would like to know more about curriculum development and pedagogy. This credential of 12-continuing education units enables individuals to be curriculum specialists and leaders and serve as important resources for their colleagues.

Continuing Education Units

Continuing education units (CEUs) are defined by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools;  one credit hour equals one CEU. CEUs are recorded on an official Loyola transcript and kept in the permanent records of the university. Students who study as continuing education students have extensive ministry experience, often in diocesan, school, or parish leadership positions, and have the ability to do the graduate-level reading and discussion. Some CEU students lack the required bachelor’s degree to enroll for the graduate degree, while others already have graduate credentials and do not wish to earn another graduate degree. 

This credential is also available for graduate credit.
