Clinical Pastoral Education - Level 1Accelerated Summer ProgrammeAs a CPE student you will encounter people in crisis and learn from examination of the experience under the guidance of a Chaplain Supervisor as well as interaction with and feedback from resident chaplains, peers, physicians, nurses, police officers, university professors and others. It is recognized that each student brings unique questions and motivations. Thus, learning goals for each student are negotiated with the Supervisor. These goals are then pursued in a variety of settings such as individual supervision, meeting with your peer group in interpersonal sessions, verbatims, didactic and seminars.
