What is Clinical Pastoral Education?
Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) is a programme of supervised education that equips people for compassionate, reflective, and ethical spiritual/pastoral. It combines real-world experience with group and individual supervision, grounded in personal reflection and professional standards.
“I wanted them to learn to read human documents as well as books…”
