This workshop presents practical interviewing techniques housed in a theoretical framework of behavioral assessment. While the focus of the workshop is on initial assessment of candidates, the methodology easily applies to assessing candidates in other stages of formation as well. Workshop participants study sample case reports and learn skills for interviewing as well as guidelines for organizing the information into useful reports. Interview topics include: family background, educational and occupational histories, psychosexual histories and intimacy skills, faith history, and other pertinent issues related to comprehensive vocation assessment.

 

Please note this workshop ends at 4:30 p.m. on July 20. Overnight accommodations are contracted for 4 nights, arrival on July 17 and check out on July 21.

Presenter

Reverend Raymond P. Carey, Ph.D. is a priest of the Archdiocese of Portland, OR. He has taught at both the secondary and university levels, and presently teaches at Mount Angel Seminary Graduate School of Theology in Saint Benedict, Oregon. Fr. Carey holds a doctorate in clinical psychology from the University of Ottawa, Canada. He has presented workshops in North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. He is a past recipient of the NRVC Harvest Award for his work in service of vocation ministry.

This topic is very useful for people who are involved in vocation ministry and I felt there were good tools given that will be helpful. I would recommend this workshop to not only vocation directors; the program is good for the whole team. 

–Sr. Josefina Ramac, SP from Renton, WA

It was eye opening for me as a new member of the vocation team. This workshop gave me an overview of what assessment is all about. I also appreciated the awareness that I acquired about the complexity and depth of vocation discernment. 

–Rev. Guillermo Hernandez from the Diocese of Sacramento

Having actual cases to review was very helpful. I learned a lot in the workshop and I have a good idea on how to grow going forward. Fr. Ray practices what he teaches and is very credible. This is a great way to prepare for vocation ministry. 

–Br. Jason Graves OFM Cap. from Chicago, IL


Workshops are designed from the NRVC three-component curriculum for those who wish to deepen their understanding of the complex theological, spiritual, psycho-sexual, ethical, and diversity issues often present in contemporary vocation ministry. NRVC recommends that vocation ministers participate in ongoing educational opportunities to attend to their own vocation, faith formation, and to further develop their professional competencies. Please read the terms and conditions of all NRVC programs and events.
