Summer Institute for Technology in Ministry 2011 There are TWO options for participation in this course. Option 1 Pastoral Technology Certificate Level The certificate level will give you the maximum training and benefit, and is the most cost-effective. This level offers a planned series of study designed to give you hands-on experience in Web 2.0 technologies that will enhance your ministry to meet 21st century needs. We will utilize a blended format where we will meet in a traditional face-to-face or webinar format. Your creativity will be challenged to design and implement a final capstone project that you will customize for your ministry or classroom. You will receive CEUs from the University of Dayton, Institute of Pastoral Initiatives at the completion of all work in December, 2011. Cost: $160 for all 8 modules including Orientation This option is designed to mentor catechetical and ministry staff in gaining 21st century skills for communication and faith-based educational technology, for teachers seeking continuing education credit for recertification, and for those who are eager to learn more about using the most popular educational tools available.
