Teaching Organisation This unit involves 150 hours of focused learning. The total includes formally structured learning activities such as lectures, tutorials, online learning, video-conferencing, or supervision. The remaining hours typically involve reading, research, and the preparation of tasks for assessment.

This unit is particularly suited for those working in educational, health and welfare contexts which are founded and animated by the charism of a religious congregation. Students will undertake a critical study of the charism of a specific religious congregation in the context of Catholic theological tradition, as well as examining the history of the congregation, with a special emphasis on the founder. The unit gives students the opportunity to reflect on the meaning of a specific charism in the contemporary context.
