Diakon currently offers Clinical Pastoral Education in two formats:
Extended Unit (Fall/Spring)
The CPE extended unit (fall/spring session) takes place from mid to late September of one year through March of the next. The session meets one day or evening a week for educational and clinical sessions, for a minimum of 100 hours of classroom time and an additional 300 hours of clinical experience.
Educational classes meet at Frey Village, a Diakon Lutheran Senior Living Community near Harrisburg, Pa. The clinical experience takes place in an agreed-upon setting.
Summer Unit
The intensive summer program for 2009 begins on May 27, 2009, and concludes on August 11, 209, and takes place over 11 weeks, with students involved in CPE training full-time during the session. Minimum numbers of classroom and clinical hours are the same as for the fall/spring session. Also as with the fall/spring program, educational classes take place at Frey Village, a Diakon Lutheran Senior Living Community near Harrisburg, Pa. The clinical experience can occur in a variety of settings.
The summer session includes housing for students and covers some travel costs.
