Ministry Leadership Program

A formation program for executive leaders of Catholic ministries.

The future of Catholic ministries depends on leaders responding effectively to the business, clinical and social environments of the organisations they lead.  This includes leaders of programs, finance, HR and planning.

Leadership formation deepens your understanding of the mission and values of your organisation and the spiritual purpose of Catholic ministries, to build up the community and carry on the tradition.

The Ministry Leadership Program (MLP) enables the Catholic tradition to continue to find expression, practical relevance and be an instrument for hope in the world through its ministries of service, so the mission of the Gospel is handed on to future generations. It offers executive leaders of Catholic ministries a deep, comprehensive and fully integrated learning experience grounded in the wisdom of the Catholic tradition.

The program brings together a rich diversity of experience from across Catholic healthcare, aged care, education and social services to collaborate and cultivate a mission-driven culture. The program is conducted over 12 months from July 2024.

In the current context of governance transitions within MPJPs, this would be a valuable to give senior leaders a program which will augment the AICD Course and provide some depth for NFP entities within the church.
