Timothy W. Dwyer
Associate Executive Director
NCEA Department of Chief Administrators of Catholic Education


Timothy Dwyer was initially as appointed Assistant Executive Director of the Chief Administrators of Catholic Education in July 2001. Prior to that he served for nine years as Superintendent of Schools for the Diocese of Rochester, New York, and for five years in the same capacity for the Diocese of Gaylord, Michigan. While in Rochester, Dwyer led a planning process that created a system approach to Catholic elementary schools. He played a critical role in securing over $50,000,000 in support for Catholic schools in the diocese. Prior to his central office positions, Dwyer served as an elementary school principal at three Catholic schools in Grand Rapids, Michigan for nine years.

He has served as a member of the CACE Executive Committee, Schools Division Advisory Committee and National Association of Boards, Councils and Commissions of Catholic Education (NABCCCE). He was instrumental in the development of a series of workshops focusing on the financial management of Catholic schools. He presents these workshops regularly, and is a frequent presenter at NCEA's annual convention and CACE Meeting.

Dwyer earned bachelor's and master's degrees from Michigan State University, and a master of business administration (MBA) from Grand Valley State University.

 

He has authored two NCEA publications:  A Glossary of Catholic Education Governance Terms (2003), and Stable but Fragile:  Assessing the Quality and Scope of Diocesan Policies, Procedures and Expectations for Catholic School Financial Management (2005).

 

Established in 1904, the NCEA is the largest private professional education organization in the world, representing 200,000 Catholic educators serving 7.6 million students in Catholic elementary and secondary schools, in religious education programs, in seminaries and in colleges and universities.
