Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for Chaplains and Christian Ministers
What Is CPD?
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is a structured approach to learning that ensures you stay effective, informed, and spiritually grounded in your role as a chaplain or minister.
CPD involves a range of activities—formal and informal—that help you refresh skills, explore new insights, and cultivate lifelong learning.
Why CPD Matters
CPD underpins your pastoral effectiveness by keeping your theological knowledge and practical skills up to date.
It demonstrates accountability to your congregation or institution, showing that you actively invest in excellence and integrity.
Regular CPD also supports personal well-being by fostering reflective practice and preventing burnout.
Participants will:
- Explore foundational theological themes that shape chaplaincy, including grace, calling, and spiritual authority.
- Develop communication skills for offering effective pastoral care in diverse contexts.
- Engage in reflective practice, assessing their ministerial experience and spiritual growth.
- Strengthen understanding of OSL’s values, licensing responsibilities, and apostolic succession principles in chaplaincy.
- Apply learning to real-world pastoral scenarios through case studies and collaborative discussion.
