Since 1999, the Satellite Theological
Education Program (STEP) at the University of Notre Dame
has offered quality theological education to pastoral ministers
and other adult Catholics across the country. Conducted
via the Internet, STEP provides a wide variety of adult
faith formation opportunities.
STEP is a part of Notre Dame’s Institute
for Church Life (ICL). The Institute exists as an integral
component of the University's larger mission of teaching,
research, and service to society and to the Church. It reaches
out to the whole spectrum of Church leaders, both ordained
and lay, to provide training and service as well as opportunities
for spiritual rejuvenation and personal growth.
STEP accomplishes its mission with continuing
education e-Courses, for-credit courses, and a Catholic
lecture series. For more details please visit our Course
