Training and conferences

The Centre for Paediatric Spiritual Care is committed to experiential learning. We run occasional spiritual care activity days when visitors from other hospitals, hospices or organisations have the opportunity to work alongside a Children's hospital staff member for the day and learn about how we work.

We currently work with the Midlands Institute for Children, Youth and Mission and Staffordshire University delivering accredited modules at level four and level seven in spiritual care and paediatric chaplaincy-related topics.

We run at least one module a year and these include four study days at the Children’s hospital including one focusing on activities with patients. It is possible to attend the modules without completing the assessment.

Members of the CPSC are available to deliver teaching and training at your workplace, please contact us for more details.

We have a limited number of students on placement with the Children's hospital Chaplaincy. Please contact us on 0121 333 8526 if you are interested in working with us.
