Maryvale Institute is a college of further and higher education, an International Catholic Distance-Learning College for Catechesis, Theology, Philosophy and Religious Education formerly based in Old Oscott, Great Barr, Birmingham, England.

It specialises in the provision of part-time, distance learning courses to the lay faithful, consecrated religious and ministers of the Roman Catholic Church.

The validator of the Bachelor of Divinity and Licence in Catechetics programmes is the Faculté-Notre Dame, at the École Cathédrale de Paris.
