Accreditation
We are an education facility that recognizes the accomplishments of individuals who have been in ministry for many years prior to obtaining a fully qualified education in theology or divinity. The programs and courses in the Old Catholic Institute are not affiliated with any institute of higher learning, nor are they accredited by any secular organization. The Old Catholic Institute is, however, in the process of updating all programs and courses so as to obtain accreditation from an independent religious education body. Once completed, information specific to independent accreditation will appear here. Please be aware this accreditation may not be valid for use in secular institutions.
