Summary Information
Born out of the 2004 Synod you could say that ‘Support’ is CatholicLIFE’s middle name. We have been constructed to provide ongoing professional Services and Systems with a faith-based focus for the wider community. The two Key aspects of CatholicLIFE Support are Services and Systems.Services & Systems
This approach is essentially a way of coordination, empowerment, facilitation and skilling which allows for a greater sharing of skills, knowledge and resources across initiatives.
The services and programs of CatholicLIFE including Adult Faith Formation and Spirituality, Catholic Youth Ministry and CCD are supported by integrated and shared office and administrative technology. Sustainability and a strategic focus are the key benefits of this approach leading to enhanced capacity to provide added value to parishes and faith communities.
Another key component of CatholicLIFE Services and Systems is its capacity to provide accredited education and training opportunities recognised under the Australian Quality Training Framework. In this way CatholicLIFE provides quality training and Recognised Prior Learning opportunities that bring formation in faith and Catholic identity AND advance professional development and career pathways.
