Center Accreditation
There are two classifications of CPE centers.
The first, an on–site center, is a locally developed center, usually in a health-care facility but it may be anywhere, with a physical location and serves CPE students in that area. The center provides meeting space for the CPE group and is the focal point of the program activity.
The second, a long–distance center may be located anywhere and serves CPE students worldwide. Students usually perform their clinical hours at their current place of ministry.
Both centers operate equally save for the group encounters and supervisory sessions. In the on&line center, these are carried out using electronic means. Supervisors are sensitive to the groups varying abilities to use technology.
Centers may be established by either a Supervisor-in-Training (under the direct supervision of a full CPE Supervisor) or by a full Supervisor. There are a minimum of two (2) and a maximum of twelve (12) students in each CPE unit.
