Partnership with University of Dayton – VLCFF

The Office of Religious Education and the Catholic School Department have formed a partnership with the University of Dayton “Virtual Learning Community for Faith Formation”   The VLCFF is an e-learning initiative that supports adult faith formation, in addition to catechist and lay ecclesial leadership formation in the Church.

Over 45 courses are available online. These include Scripture, Christology, Ecclesiology, Sacraments, Catholic Beliefs, Media Education, Catholic Social and Prayer; to name just a few.  Courses run for 3-6 weeks and are capped at 15 participants. They are password protected and run by credentialed facilitators. 

Classes are open to any interested adult and may be applied toward certification requirements. Because our diocese is a VLCFF Partner, your cost is only $40.00 per course, plus the cost of text.   Texts may be purchased from the Office of Religious Education Resource center. Call 508-929-4301.
