CPE Internship

A CPE internship, often related to Clinical Pastoral Education, is a supervised training program for individuals preparing for careers in spiritual care or chaplaincy. Interns work in healthcare, community, or institutional settings, providing emotional and spiritual support to patients, families, and staff. They gain hands-on experience, develop counseling and communication skills, and deepen their understanding of diverse beliefs and cultural sensitivities. The internship combines practical service with structured learning, aiming to prepare participants to serve compassionately and professionally in spiritually sensitive environments.
