This workshop will focus on the many challenges and opportunities of Catholic Pastoral Care training and will share insights and lessons learned from 10 years of the Pastoral Field Education Program in Hawaii. The success of the program is self-evident in that it has generated a large number of Chaplains in active ministry currently serving in hospital and hospice settings. This workshop will also share the lessons learned from the screening and selection process of trainees, clinical supervisions and the management of the clinical sites with ACPE center. This session is suited for small rural Diocese/parishes with limited resources.
