About the program
Liberty University’s Master of Divinity – Professional Chaplaincy – Healthcare (Online) contains foundational knowledge needed for any spiritual leader, courses relating specifically to chaplaincy, and information on working with people who are a part of the healthcare system.
You can also complete Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) units as a part of your program, which can make you immediately employable upon graduation.
