Lifelong Learning

Lifelong Learning can include many things. In addition to traditional CEU credits, you might want to consider working with your diocese to developing a plan based on your gifts and strengths and how best to acquire any new skills you many need. Resources can be explored based on your plan, and the plan can alter as needed.
