Overview
Care that goes where people are.
The Chaplaincy program equips aspiring and active chaplains with the skills, knowledge and spiritual insight to offer compassionate, ethical and effective care in diverse settings — hospitals, military units, correctional facilities, schools and community organisations.
Participants explore pastoral presence, crisis response, interfaith sensitivity, ethical boundaries and grief counseling, using real-world case studies, role-play and weekly reflective practice. Graduates can respond to trauma, grief and moral injury with compassion and wisdom, and practise self-care and spiritual resilience as caregivers.
