More than training,

CREC is a methodology

Responding
to your Reality

Partnerships with other Catholic networks facilitate the creation of tailor-made modules to meet specific needs and respond to long-term objectives.

Experiential
Learning

CREC International guarantees an experiential, effective, and impactful style of “being” communication. Its method is summarized in its motto: “Less Notions. More Emotions”.

Serving
the Church

CREC International is dedicated to serving Catholic communications by promoting the message of the Gospel, and contributing to spreading the Good News, through the media.

Evaluation
& Follow-up

CREC International ensures that proper evaluation and follow-ups are part of the process. Questionnaires and feedback forms help us stay connected, even after the session is over.
