How does it work?
1. Organize a Circle
Choose the course you would like to take and whether you are going to do it individually or in a group.
If you are part of a group, you need to have a circle facilitator. This is a member of the circle, interested not only in growing himself, but in leading others to grow in faith.
The facilitator’s role is to act as a bridge between Newman Academy and the other members, to call the people who are going to be part of the circle, to help them register on the virtual platform, to contact whoever manages access to the materials, to assist the group with the agenda and meeting reminders.
2. Enroll in the course
The next step is to fill out the form with the information of everyone who will participate.
It is important that you complete the corresponding form according to the modality you choose to take the course.
Once you have completed the form, you will receive the necessary instructions to access the course material.
3. Training meetings or “Newmanian circles”
These meetings (three or four for each topic) can be held as frequently as you decide – weekly, biweekly, monthly. During these meetings, you can contact the Fellow to ask questions, connect, and more.
4. Course closure
For those who have taken a circle (or group) course, we propose a fourth closing face-to-face meeting with the Fellow, when possible, to clarify questions, deepen the topics, and generate a personal bond with the rest of those who participate in the Newman Academy.
This meeting can be face-to-face or virtual, depending on the case.

2. What are the technical requirements to do it?
In order to take the course you must have a cell phone and/or a computer with internet access and an email account.
3. Can I take the course at my own pace?
Yes, each group chooses the frequency with which it meets to view, read and discuss the material for each meeting.
4. How do I sign up?
5. How long does each course last?
All courses consist of 3 training meetings or “circles”, and a closing meeting. The total duration of the course will depend on the frequency with which your group meets to hold these meetings.
6. Can I do it alone, without a group?
Having a group of friends is not mandatory, but it is much more enriching. We advise you to find two or three friends who will accompany you on this adventure, and who can grow together in their faith and at the same time intellectually.
