In February 2024, the Alberta Catholic School Trustees' Association (ACSTA) hosted a Catholic Education Symposium at Corpus Christi Parish in Edmonton, Alberta.

Over 130 members of the Catholic Education community gathered, including trustees, superintendents, principals, teachers, school chaplains, clergy, and university students. Together, they engaged in a crucial conversation around a vital question:

How can we best support the formation of teachers in our schools so they can serve as faithful Catholic witnesses and models for our students?

Following the symposium Dr. Dean Sarnecki, Trustee for Elk Island Catholic Schools, organized and analyzed the data collected during the event. He complied the finding into a comprehensive report for the Catholic Education community.

ACSTA is proud to share this valuable resource:
