Description

A program at the forefront of teaching to transmit Catholicism, its culture and values to children and to motivate them to faith and spirituality”

##IMAGE##

Catholicism is, today, one of the most important religions worldwide. Its split from Christianity, as well as the different expressions that have emerged from its practice have determined a significant cultural wasteland, which has been carried over centuries to the present day, contributing very important aspects to the daily life of its parishioners: norms, customs, traditions, etc. From a philosophical point of view, religion goes beyond the belief in a superior being or an institution, since, through spirituality, it seeks to answer questions related to life and death, motivating a holistic thinking that generates a common social conscience through worship and the feeling of veneration towards the divinity.

For this reason, and because of the values it represents as a whole, instilling the foundations of this doctrine in the youngest children has become an essential tool to give continuity to religious culture, which is why TECH has considered it necessary to develop this program. This program includes the most innovative and effective educational guidelines for the teaching of Catholicism at Pre-School and Primary levels. Through 600 hours of the best theoretical, practical and additional content, the specialist will be able to delve into the intricacies of teaching through the knowledge that gives name to the religious fact in different cultures, focusing on its social, ethical and moral influence.
