Dive Deep into Catholic Faith

No theological background is needed. We welcome all practising Catholics who want to deepen their understanding of the faith. You need O/Level passes or a high school diploma (or equivalent) and basic computer skills. Most importantly, we look for students with an open heart, a commitment to learning, and a desire to grow in their relationship with Christ and His Church.

The Diploma in Catholic Theology typically takes 18-24 months to complete, depending on your chosen pace. Students generally commit 8-12 hours per week to their studies, on the lessons, reading and assignments. The course is self-paced, so you can fit your studies around work, family and parish commitments.

Our program is designed in accordance with Catholic Church guidelines for theological education and follows established academic standards. While primarily intended for personal enrichment and lay ministry preparation, many graduates have successfully used their diploma for advancement in Catholic schools, parish roles, and further theological study. We recommend contacting specific institutions if you plan to pursue additional academic credentials, as recognition policies vary.

You'll need a reliable internet connection and a computer, tablet or phone with a current web browser. The course site works on Windows, Mac and mobile devices, and there is an online guide to using it at docs.sleev.org. We answer technical questions within a day. No special software is needed.

You pay for one level at a time, by bank deposit, at the rates shown on the register page. If the fees are a difficulty for you, help is available — contact us to ask.
