FAQs
My denominational region, annual conference, judicatory, diocese, presbytery, seminary, theological school, etc. wants to offer CPE. Can you help?
Yes. We partner with denominational representatives to offer their students CPE. Judicatories can send students to CIPP@MTSO individually or in cohorts.
I represent an institution or other organization with a CPE program that needs an educator. Can you provide one?
Yes. We have faculty across the country that are able to provide Level I/II CPE. Institutions may find this to be a more affordable option than a contract educator.
How does my organization get accredited by the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education?
Our team includes accreditation site team chairs and educators with backgrounds with ACPE’s Accreditation Commission. We would meet with you for consultation and outline the steps towards accreditation, and we would offer options for CIPP@MTSO to do the work to get your program accredited or maintain accreditation.
What does ACPE accreditation do for my organization?
You’ll join the largest association of clinical programs offering the highest quality of CPE.
What is the cost for my organization?
The cost depends on your institution’s needs and context. Please contact us to discuss.
