Recovering and adapting the classical tradition of liberal education as embraced and developed by the Church 3. Supporting Catholic educators through conferences, teacher development programs, in-service workshops, consultation, and publications 4. Advancing this vision among schools, colleges, dioceses, and other individuals and institutions involved in Catholic education
