CPE Link established between New Zealand and Ireland

By Bruce Pierce • August 25, 2020

Delighted to share good news that from 24th August NZACPE (New Zealand Association for Clinical Pastoral Education) and ACPE Ireland (Association for Clinical Pastoral Education Ireland) Ltd have signed an Agreement of Reciprocity between both professional bodies. The Agreement was signed by the respective Chairperson Rev Valerie Riches (NZ) and Fr Brian Gough (Ireland). The origins of the journey can be seen in a visit to Cork by Ray Bloomfield (Supervisor in Rotorua). Subsequent discussions were initiated and undertaken by the respective Chairpersons - Roy Alexander (NZ) and Bruce Pierce (Ireland). The agreement provides equivalency for Level 1 & 2 programs and includes Supervisory Reciprocity. ACPE(Ireland) is delighted with this innovative development with out partners in NZACPE. It follows on from a similar agreement between ACPE (Ireland) and CASC ( Canadian Association for Spiritual Care). Currently ACPE(Ireland) is in discussion with ACPE - the professional body in the United States.
