The Board of Trustees of CPSP-Philippines met on September 14. The primary items dealt with were issues of standards for being a Diplomate in Pastoral Supervision (“DPS”), updating the overall standards of CPSP-Philippines, and maintaining equivalency of standards of CPSP-Philippines with our parent organization (CPSP) while also being sensitive to local concerns.

Presently, board members are looking over the 2021 CPSP standards (with our present standards) to see what updates we need to do.

First of all, we have updated our Training Center Page. A couple more still need to give us updated information, but this should help for now, especially for those seeking to contact one of the training centers directly, Click https://cpspphilippines.com/about-us/directories/training-centers/
