Education has been one of the outstanding actions of the Catholic Church, throughout its history, in the world. It is, in effect, an imitation of Jesus who is the model for all those who teach. Considering the size of the population, its diversity and local needs, more educational institutions that cater particularly to the lower income groups are a crying need. And it is not just basic literacy that is required but the skills which will equip learners to become self-supporting and responsible citizens. We are privileged to be able to fill this need through our own schools, junior college and polytechnic, as also through our presence (either as Principals or as teaching staff) in the Parish Schools administered by the various Dioceses.
It conduct courses in Diploma in Hospitality Studies, Fashion Designing, Beauty Culture, MS-CIT Government recognized course and KLIC Courses It is now extended to Aarey Colony Unit No.22 where we conduct sewing, embroidery and beautician classes to make them skillful and employable. So that they can earn their living and take care of their families. ( this is made possible by the cooperation of Hilton Foundation)
