Canon 330

1. It is proper for the synod of bishops of the patriarchal

Church or council of hierarchs to set up a program for the

training of clerics, in which the common law is more precisely

set forth for seminaries located within the territorial boundaries of its own Church. In other cases it is proper to the eparchial bishop to develop this type of program for his own eparchy, without prejudice to can. 150, 3. It is also proper to the

same authorities to change the program. 2. There can also be a

program of formation, set up by mutual agreement, common to an

entire region or nation or even with other Churches sui iuris being careful that the character of the rites suffer no harm. 3.

Faithfully observing common law and keeping in mind the tradition

of its own Church sui iuris, the program of formation of clerics

is to include, in addition to other things, more specific norms

about the personal, spiritual, doctrinal and pastoral formation

of students as well as about individual disciplines to be taught

and the ordering of courses and of examinations.
