Aquinas College developed the Catechist Training Program in collaboration with the Diocese of Nashville to help pastors, principals, and directors of religious education train prospective catechists in Roman Catholic doctrine. By making available faculty, research, and scholarship prepared in the light of the Magisterium of the Church, the Catechist Training Program offers a systematic and organic formation program based on the Catechism of the Catholic Church and other catechetical documents of the Universal Church and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
For more information on the Catechist Training Program including current schedule, please email catechetics@aquinascollege.edu or visit www.dioceseofnashville.com/catechetical.htm.
