Want to learn theology – from home?
“Here at the Priory Institute we are attempting to make theology available to people by the distance education method. Following the method made famous by the open university, we are assembling ‘packs’, each one dealing with an aspect of theology, and utilising a network of centres around the country where students can have the help of a resident tutor.
Participants may follow the programme either for an academic credit or simply for its own sake. Latest date for application for the Autumn course is 20th Sept.
For further information contact The Priory Institute, Tallaght Village, Dublin 24, or call 01-4048127, & ask for Joe Kavanagh, o.p.
