Health Care Chaplaincy Options
The MACP degree prepares students for a career in many types of health care related ministries. Additionally, your internship can be directed to earn Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) units in preparation for vocational hospital chaplaincy.
Build a Ministry Skillset
If you seek to provide a combination of pastoral care, emotional and spiritual care, and practical life counseling to people outside of the church, then becoming a chaplain may be the right path for you.
