For Ministry Formation Programs

Utilization of online course and technology in ministry formation using courses or course content developed by MTS

MTS can develop courses and course content specifically for ministry formation program looking to utilize online technology and E-learning in their programs. We can do this by developing supplemental materials to assist with traditional classroom programming, by developing online courses to mix with traditional classes, or by creating exclusively online courses for your program. See our e-learning FAQs for more about the three formats of online learning.

Integration and Utilization of online technology with previously established curriculum and course content

This service includes customized assistance with integrating instructional technology, distance education, and online education into diocesan ministry formation programs. MTS will design online courses or a learning management system using current ministry formation program curriculum, provide ongoing course maintenance, faculty training, and facilitation of online course elements as needed by each program.

Onsite or face-to-face ministry education and formation

MTS also can supplement your ministry formation program with onsite training events and workshops, as well as developing entire courses to meet the ministry education needs of your students. See the topics for workshops and training currently offered by MTS below.

We are also speaking across the country on the National Study of Youth and Religion. If you would like to offer workshops from us on the NSYR, click here for more information.
