Uplift Care + Education
Clinical Pastoral Education
Uplift offers clinical pastoral education to persons serving in faith-based and other clinical settings, to leaders intentionally transitioning into the ministry of spiritual care, and to those seeking to expand themselves through online options for continuing education.
What is Uplift?
Education for Spiritual Care
Uplift is an ACPE-accredited program that provides space for ministers to increase their self-compassion; to receive support as often-unsupported caregivers; and to increase their ability to serve without compromising self-care.
Why Choose Uplift?
CPE Lifts Learners
This program is established to meet specific needs. It is space for the student who is drawn to the curricular features which distinguish Uplift and for students interested in online education. Uplift is for:
Persons looking to become board-certified chaplains.
Students drawn to the gifts of Black Psychology, Practical Theology, and Black Liberation Theology.
Students looking for structured approaches to growth.
Persons who presume inter-faith interest and readiness to expand to meet human beings as human beings.
Starting CPE with Uplift
After prospective students have begun to discuss service possibilities with a clinical setting of their choosing, students, the placement site, and the certified educator must complete a clinical placement agreement prior to the start of CPE for the education to commence. As an online program, Uplift’s learning time is entirely online, including group meetings and individual consultations.
