CLINICAL PASTORAL EDUC

Catalog description

A course focusing on ministerial formation within a hospital, hospice, or similar context. The course requires the student to engage in actual ministry, have a supervisor/mentor, a cohort of fellow students, and detailed reflection on one's own practice of ministry in these contexts. It is expected that normally this course will be met by taking the initial unit in Clinical Pastoral Education in a program accredited by the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education. There may be separate fee. This unit may be applied toward the four units required by the ACPE for board certification as a professional chaplain.
