Diocesan Partnerships for Stronger Catholic Schools and Parishes

Building capacity across your diocese, one school at a time.

Sustained coaching across your schools in advancement, development, and enrollment management.

Every (arch)diocese has a vision for Catholic school growth and sustainability. ISPD’s year-long coaching engagement meets every school where it is at and builds the capacity to live it out — school by school, moving the whole system forward together.

The result: every school develops a completed Plan for Advancement & Enrollment — and your office has an ISPD Advancement Scorecard™ showing exactly where your system stands.

Setting the direction for Catholic education across your diocese.

Diocesan-wide planning that unites all stakeholders around a shared vision for Catholic education.

A Strategic Growth Plan is more than a document — it’s a people-centered process that moves an (arch)diocese from competing priorities to shared mission. From isolated schools to a unified system. From reacting to the moment to engaged communities building for the next generation. Plans don’t move (arch)dioceses. Unity, ownership, and hope do — and that’s what our process is built to create.

The result: a shared plan your whole (arch)diocese helped build — with the vision, goals, and accountability to make it last.

Equipping your leaders to move
their schools forward.

Customized professional development for principals and advancement directors, built around your calendar and priorities.

Many (arch)dioceses share a vision for Catholic education. But few have a vision for educating their schools in advancement — and fewer still have built the capacity to deliver it. ISPD’s workshop series equips them with the tools to improve their advancement, with practical sessions built around your calendar and your schools’ real needs.

The result: diocesan and school leaders working from one advancement framework, with proven processes, language, and concrete next steps you can apply immediately.
