Adult Faith Online is a series of short, online courses which focus on aspects of our faith and require reading, listening and reflection.
Like a book club, you can discuss ideas in an online community or create your own adult faith study group. Adult Faith Online can also be used for staff accreditation of both teaching and non-teaching personnel in Catholic schools.
