Masonic Education
Basic Education for Candidates
In addition to the memorized proficiency, each candidate is expected to read an education booklet designed specifically for the degree that he has most recently completed. To demonstrate his understanding of the material, he is asked to answer several questions about the material.
Candidate Mentor Program
Candidates are encouraged to seek an explanation of the history, purpose, operation, symbolism, philosophy, obligation, and ideals of Freemasonry. Lodges provide assistance to candidates in this pursuit with the Indiana Masonic Candidate Program.
Masonic Formation Certification Program
This one-day training workshop certifies Masonic formation officers in the lodges. Combining candidate education with a lifelong learning experience for all members, Masonic Formation is a powerful tool to inspire candidates and renew the spirit of Masonry in the lodge.
Research Organization Around the World
Research Lodges in Indiana conduct research, hold discussions, gather and preserve Masonic information, maintain libraries, supply papers or speakers at the request of other Lodges, and conduct a program of general service in the field of Masonic education and information.
