We believe the best formation happens in real-life settings. Our students engage in supervised clinical and community experiences where theory meets practice, and learning is deepened through hands-on ministry.

Guided by expert supervisors, students reflect on their experiences, explore their emotional and spiritual responses, and gain deeper self-awareness — the foundation of effective pastoral and chaplaincy care.

Graduates step forward as skilled, compassionate caregivers, ready to serve in hospitals, churches, communities, and institutions — transforming lives and bringing hope where it’s needed most.
Our approach is simple yet impactful.
For years, we have been shaping leaders who serve with both skill and heart. Our unique blend of academic rigor, practical experience, and spiritual depth sets us apart as a leading center for Clinical Pastoral Education in Nigeria.
