The Introductory Theological Formation (ITF) is a one-year non-degree formation program designed for postulants and novices to religious life, youth leaders of parishes and schools, and others who wish to acquire basic knowledge on various aspects of the Christian faith that is responsive to the signs of the times.
This Certificate Program may be taken either for academic formation, personal enrichment, or as a prerequisite to the Master’s degree program (MA in Theology and Masters in Pastoral Ministry), and theological studies for the priesthood and religious life.
Classes are held on Mondays and Tuesdays, with 3-hour courses and hourly short breaks. A student receives a Certificate of Completion at the end of two semesters.
Academic Pre-Requisites
No academic degree is required to register for this program. It is advisable, however, for students to have finished at least two years in college or university.
This program usually consists of intercultural and international students; it would help if the student has basic reading, writing, and communication skills in English.
