Religious Education Part 1 is designed to prepare Catholic educators to serve as faith leaders in their classrooms and school communities. Rooted in the mission of Catholic education, this hybrid course combines online learning with an immersive, guided study tour abroad. This unique approach allows participants to deepen their understanding of the Catholic faith through both academic study and lived experience.

The course begins with an introductory module, followed by a multi-day experiential learning journey abroad (e.g., Sicily and Malta), where participants will explore the rich historical, cultural, and spiritual heritage of the Catholic tradition. Guided by course facilitators, candidates will visit significant religious sites, engage in prayer and reflection, and participate in discussions that connect these experiences to contemporary Catholic education. This pilgrimage-style component fosters a profound sense of community and spiritual growth, setting the stage for meaningful learning throughout the course. Following the study tour, participants will continue their learning through interactive online modules.
