Clinical Pastoral Education is interfaith professional education for ministry. It brings theological students, ordained clergy and qualified laypersons into supervised encounters with people in crisis. Intense involvement with patients and family members plus feedback from peers and teachers give CPE students a new awareness of themselves and those to whom they minister. The Resident CPEACPE offers students the opportunity to prepare for Board Certification as Professional Chaplains.
The CPE Program at Providence St. Peter Hospital is accredited by the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education, Inc. and offers credit for units of CPE. One unit includes a minimum of 400 hours of clinical supervision and education. CPE students gain new perspectives on their ministry through theological reflections on real-life situations, and they develop skills through interpersonal and inter-professional relationships.
The clinical practice site will be PRMC Everett. The educational part of the program will be a hybrid program with fellow students from Providence St. Peter (Olympia).
