Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools (MACS) provides support for staff in Catholic schools to undertake study in a number of accredited courses offered by external institutions.

Some Sponsored Study courses are open to staff in Catholic schools working in other dioceses in Victoria.

Sponsored Study in a number of key areas is generally advertised during the year prior to course commencement. As timelines vary for each course, program details and application requirements are released throughout the year.

The Sponsored Study schedule can be found in the Online Professional Learning (OPL) application via the CEVN website. CEVN is a secure intranet only available to staff employed in Victorian Catholic schools.
