          Alegent Health’s CPE Program recently received its ten-year continuing 
          accreditation through 2017, with no notations. The action follows upon 
          a successful site visit and action by the national Accreditation Commission 
          of the ACPE (Association for Clinical Pastoral Education). Alegent’s 
          CPE program is one of two accredited programs in Nebraska and 350 centers 
          in the United States. </P>

The Association for Clinical Pastoral Education, Inc. describes Clinical Pastoral Education in this way:


<p> "Clinical Pastoral Education is interfaith, professional education for ministry. 
  It brings theological students, qualified laypersons, and ministers of all faiths 
  (pastors, priests, rabbis, imams and others) into supervised encounter with 
  persons in crisis. Out of an intense involvement with persons in need, and the 
  feedback from peers and teachers, CPE participants develop new awareness of 
  themselves as persons and of the needs of those to whom they minister. From 
  theological reflection on specific human situations, they gain a new understanding 
  of ministry. Within the interdisciplinary team process of helping persons, they 
  develop skills in interpersonal and inter-professional relationships." <br>
  <br>
  CPE supports Alegent Health’s mission, “faithful to the healing ministry of 
  Jesus Christ, . . .to provide high quality care for the body, mind and spirit 
  of every person.” The CPE program began at Immanuel Medical Center in 1965 and 
  remains today an important component of the faith-based ministry of Alegent 
  Health. The program is highly regarded and appreciated by the many healthcare 
  professionals across the region that experience the dedicated pastoral service 
  provided by the program’s graduates. The program contributes to the Alegent 
  Health pledge to “be creative, visionary leaders committed to holistic healthcare 
  in the region.”<br>
  <br>
  Preparation of Pastoral care leaders is part of Alegent Health’s ongoing ministry. 
  Participants enrolled in the program contribute to the persons they serve by 
  their pastoral care in hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities and other 
  services within Alegent Health. In addition, CPE participants’ work in the local 
  community supports and furthers Alegent Health’s commitment to improving the 
  health of the communities in which they serve. Preparation of CPE Supervisors 
  contributes to the future development of Clinical Pastoral Education. Alegent 
  Health provides administrative and financial support for the CPE program out 
  of the belief that the persons enrolled in CPE will take with them a commitment 
  to care for the whole person, including the spiritual and pastoral dimensions.

>What do Alumni Say about CPE?</b></p>
<p>Here are the voices of experts, people who have taken at least one unit of 
  CPE in the program at Alegent Health:</p>
<p>“I now see myself as having a strong, compassionate and confident pastoral 
  authority among colleagues as well as with clients and family members. It seems 
  I am better able to ‘think on my feet’.”</p>
<p>“CPE has given me an ability to be aware of me, to help me consciously choose 
  how to respond to what is going on. I feel that I am living more awake, especially 
  when I see people reacting and having no clue what is going on inside of them.”</p>
<p>“CPE was an amazing experience. I think it should be required of anyone considering 
  ministry.”</p>
<p>“I use my CPE training almost daily.” </p>
<p>“CPE helped me to become focused in my ministry. CPE helped me realize that 
  my personal growth (emotionally, physically, and spiritually) is also important.”</p>
