The Diocese of London has partnered with the Catechetical Institute at the Franciscan University of Steubenville to provide a Certificate in Youth Ministry Course for those who desire to work in parish Youth Ministry.
This is a predominately on-line program consisting of 19 core workshops plus 5 electives, taken over a two year period. Those who are seeking certification for our Diocese will be assigned a local mentor and will be required to gather with fellow learners and mentors 3 times a year.
Here is a detailed information sheet and course information can be found at franciscanathome.com/dol
Each learner will be paired with a local mentor who will journey with them along the way and all learners and mentors will gather three times a year to learn together.
Certification costs approximately $700/year.
Those who desire to participate in workshops but do not require certification are welcome to take the courses for their personal enrichment and will not require a mentor and the cost is under $100 per year.
