In 1991 the Liturgy Office published Celebrating the Paschal Mystery: A Syllabus of Liturgical Formation for those setting up courses in Liturgy. Since then it has inspired and assisted many dioceses and groups organise liturgical formation in many different ways at many different levels. Those wishing to use the syllabus will note that some of the documentation it refers to has now been superseded.
The text of Syllabus is available here for downloading either as pdf or rich text format (rtf).
