ENROLLING THROUGH
THE PARISH 1
INITIAL MEETING & ENROLMENT
• The Priest/Deacon meets with the Engaged Couple to complete the paper work, book the church and enrol them in Engaged Online. • If you want your couple to have a mentor, arrange for the engaged couple to meet their parish mentor couple who also enrols in the course if they are doing it for the first time.

COURSE PARTICIPATION
• The couple completes the course at their own pace, ideally one lesson per week. Each lesson includes tools to practice before the next one.
We’re getting married!
Let’s enrol you now!
• At the end of each lesson, the couple completes an online quiz which ensures that they have understood the key concepts and completed the activities.
Mentor Accompanied Track • Mentor and engaged complete the course lesson by lesson, meeting up to discuss the quiz questions. • Mentors can access tips and support materials from the Mentor Resource Hub.

GRADUATION & FOLLOW UP MEETING
I never thought about that...
Let’s ask our mentors.
• Couple & celebrant meet to review the Course Report and discuss what they have learned. We have some questions.
THE WEDDING & NEWLYWED YEARS... Great! Let’s talk.
MRC
• Once the couple has completed the last lesson, SmartLoving will review their participation, issue a certificate and prepare the Course Report.
The Engaged couple has access to the Engaged Member Hub where there are additional online activities and articles to support them in their first year. SmartLoving will keep in touch so that they always have additional support should they need it. Mentors provide local support throughout the newlywed years.
