Let's build together the formation of your community

Online theological formation programs adapted for dioceses, schools and pastoral centers.

At IITD we work hand in hand with dioceses, parishes, schools and other religious institutions to bring theological formation to every local community, wherever it may be. “

We offer adapted programs: from official courses for teaching staff (such as the DECA for religion teachers), to pastoral formation programs adapted to parish groups. Our online model allows you to train your community in theology from anywhere, with the academic and methodological support of the IITD.
