00:01:54.150 --> 00:01:59.450 We were founded in 1999, and that just at our twenty fifth anniversary. 00:01:59.910 --> 00:02:02.490 It's a very special special year for us. 00:02:02.710 --> 00:02:08.635 The program that you're looking at now was launched in 2014. 00:02:10.375 --> 00:02:16.315 So, and I should also note that we are an accredited program with Saks COC. 00:02:16.775 --> 00:02:21.850 This is pretty much the gold standard of accreditation here in The United States. 00:02:21.850 --> 00:02:28.030 It means that we have, met very high academic and ethical standards. 00:02:28.650 --> 00:02:40.215 And I should also tell you that we were founded by a group of psychologists who who wanted a more compassionate approach to psychology that integrated both faith and ethics. 00:02:40.215 --> 00:02:50.660 And the goal was to make psychology, more accessible and to help people flourish both in their personal and professional lives. 00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:52.020 Alright. 00:02:52.160 --> 00:03:00.615 So just a little bit of history for you, and we're gonna talk about why the program is unique. 00:03:01.415 --> 00:03:08.455 So, for me, the number one reason we are unique is the second bullet, which should be the first bullet. 00:03:08.455 --> 00:03:14.635 But, it is because we were built on that integrative approach to psychology. 00:03:16.430 --> 00:03:22.850 To me, that is the number one reason, that sets us apart from other universities. 00:03:22.990 --> 00:03:29.265 But we are a 100% online program, the one that you're looking at now. 00:03:30.465 --> 00:03:35.845 So our program, the master's in psychology, it's it's really built for real life. 00:03:37.745 --> 00:03:38.965 Let me see here. 00:03:39.185 --> 00:03:42.270 A little k. 00:03:42.330 --> 00:03:44.670 Welcome everybody that's just joining now. 00:03:46.090 --> 00:03:50.570 But, anyway, so, it's built for life. 00:03:50.570 --> 00:03:54.910 It's built for all of your commitments, everything that you have going on in your life. 00:03:55.745 --> 00:03:57.845 You can make it work with your busy schedule. 00:03:57.905 --> 00:04:07.045 It's a structured program, yet it's flexible, and it enables you to work at your own pace yet keep up with the program demands. 00:04:09.350 --> 00:04:13.210 Can I say, I'm gonna save this sixteen and twenty six month? 00:04:14.870 --> 00:04:17.350 I'll talk about that more in a little bit for you. 00:04:17.350 --> 00:04:17.850 Okay? 00:04:20.790 --> 00:04:22.410 More reasons we are unique. 00:04:22.845 --> 00:04:30.465 These next four kind of tie into each other, and it begins with the small student faculty ratio. 00:04:31.085 --> 00:04:31.485 Right? 00:04:31.485 --> 00:04:35.665 So we have small classes, and we did that by design. 00:04:35.725 --> 00:04:38.205 We did it on purpose, so you can't hide. 00:04:38.205 --> 00:04:38.550 No. 00:04:38.550 --> 00:04:39.290 I'm just kidding. 00:04:39.430 --> 00:04:44.330 We did that on purpose so that you get plenty of attention from our faculty. 00:04:45.030 --> 00:04:46.890 We want you to have feedback. 00:04:46.950 --> 00:04:54.625 We want you to have that robust, education, and the best way we can do that is by keeping our classes small. 00:04:57.805 --> 00:05:14.540 You'll hear it said a lot, maybe you won't, but I have heard a lot, that, the community feel amongst the cohort, even though it's a it's an online program, there is a a strong sense of community amongst the cohort. 00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:19.980 And a lot of people go on and maintain those relationships even after graduation. 00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:24.815 So it's pretty special when you have that kind of interaction going on. 00:05:24.815 --> 00:05:25.795 You really bond. 00:05:27.135 --> 00:05:31.795 And, let me see the experienced and supportive faculty. 00:05:32.575 --> 00:05:34.995 Another reason we keep our class small. 00:05:35.455 --> 00:05:50.550 But I should let you know that our faculty, they they have a doctoral level training and real world experience, with integrating both psychology and faith. 00:05:50.550 --> 00:05:53.770 And that is because a lot of them have their own practices. 00:05:53.910 --> 00:05:58.955 So they they are practicing and, and they're teaching. 00:05:59.495 --> 00:06:01.755 So just a little note for you. 00:06:02.615 --> 00:06:03.115 Alright. 00:06:04.215 --> 00:06:10.710 We're now going to talk about, some of the benefits of the master's in psychology program. 00:06:10.710 --> 00:06:12.950 I won't go and read all of these things. 00:06:12.950 --> 00:06:14.410 You can look through them. 00:06:15.590 --> 00:06:27.585 But I will say one of the things that I have heard, from many students over time about the program is that they describe it as cathartic. 00:06:29.005 --> 00:06:46.510 The program allowed them to work through personal experiences as they're moving through And maybe even unresolved issues from long ago or things that are going on in their life now, and that helps them deepen their understanding of human person. 00:06:46.510 --> 00:06:50.275 It's it's kind of like self care built into the program. 00:06:50.275 --> 00:07:03.620 And that's important because, you know, when you're in a in a role where you're helping people and you're giving, and especially if you're an empathetic person, you give and you give. 00:07:03.620 --> 00:07:09.400 And if you don't have a means of taking care of yourself, then you can burn out pretty easily. 00:07:09.540 --> 00:07:16.360 So I I really appreciate hearing that feedback from students about this, program. 00:07:16.885 --> 00:07:20.185 I think that is beautiful, and it's important. 00:07:20.485 --> 00:07:26.245 So, let's move on. 00:07:26.245 --> 00:07:26.745 Okay. 00:07:26.965 --> 00:07:33.990 So if you got my email, thank you for coming and for responding to it. 00:07:35.330 --> 00:07:44.150 This is the part of the presitate the point in the presentation where I would be showing you these six concentrations. 00:07:44.690 --> 00:07:45.190 Right? 00:07:46.405 --> 00:07:47.145 They're great. 00:07:47.925 --> 00:07:53.865 So I would normally walk you through all of them, and and we would talk about the differences between them. 00:07:54.325 --> 00:07:57.145 But, I'm trying to give you some inside information. 00:07:57.285 --> 00:07:58.825 This is what the email promised. 00:07:59.205 --> 00:08:04.320 So we are restructuring the masters in psychology program. 00:08:04.860 --> 00:08:05.360 Alright? 00:08:06.220 --> 00:08:13.785 And instead of offering our six concentrations here, we're gonna be focusing on two of them. 00:08:13.925 --> 00:08:18.665 And this is gonna start in fall, this upcoming fall. 00:08:19.765 --> 00:08:33.380 The reason the reason for that is because one of the most common things that we have heard over the years, from students is I love the program, but what do I what do I do with my degree? 00:08:33.520 --> 00:08:40.820 And for some reason, people couldn't you know, it was hard for them to understand where they could go with it. 00:08:41.040 --> 00:08:51.845 So that feedback led to this restructuring among other things, but that was a a key thing with this restructuring of the program. 00:08:53.665 --> 00:09:00.390 We had to look at where students were naturally gravitating to as well as far as these six concentrations. 00:09:02.610 --> 00:09:09.830 So, either into leadership or organizational work or in the ministry and pastoral care. 00:09:10.465 --> 00:09:16.165 And so the program, was built around those two key areas. 00:09:17.985 --> 00:09:28.690 So now from the very beginning when a student comes in, they can see exactly where their education, connects to real roles, in the in the world. 00:09:29.870 --> 00:09:36.290 So the great news, okay, is that here are the two concentrations. 00:09:36.670 --> 00:09:42.035 We have organizational leadership is one and pastoral spiritual care. 00:09:42.055 --> 00:09:43.475 Let me show you. 00:09:44.015 --> 00:09:44.495 Oopsie. 00:09:44.495 --> 00:09:45.395 Here we go. 00:09:45.695 --> 00:09:46.995 Here's your sneak peek. 00:09:47.215 --> 00:09:48.515 These are the two concentrations. 00:09:49.135 --> 00:09:52.815 So these are what our focus is going to be. 00:09:52.815 --> 00:09:58.880 Now, the university is still finalizing the details on on these programs. 00:10:00.060 --> 00:10:06.240 The full breakdown hasn't even been put up or published online yet on the website. 00:10:06.380 --> 00:10:14.075 So I can share a general overview of each one of these, but I can't go into real deep detail. 00:10:14.135 --> 00:10:18.155 But that will come and, especially to all of you. 00:10:18.455 --> 00:10:21.915 I will have your names even though I can't see who you are now. 00:10:22.055 --> 00:10:24.940 For For some reason, there's a glitch in my Zoom. 00:10:25.480 --> 00:10:28.840 But after the fact, I'll get a report, and it'll have everybody's names. 00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:40.055 So what I can do is, I can send you more solid information once this has been uploaded or published on the website. 00:10:40.195 --> 00:10:40.695 Okay? 00:10:41.635 --> 00:10:50.135 So let's look at these two briefly, the organizational leadership and the pastoral spiritual spiritual care. 00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:59.180 For organizational leadership, this one is gonna be about building and leading programs. 00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:02.220 Let me see. 00:11:02.760 --> 00:11:03.720 I have some notes. 00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:07.865 And when I tell you this is brand new, this is really, really brand new. 00:11:07.865 --> 00:11:14.205 So pardon me if I have to look at my notes because, it's that brand new. 00:11:14.905 --> 00:11:15.405 Okay. 00:11:15.465 --> 00:11:17.405 So organizational leadership. 00:11:20.870 --> 00:11:21.370 Alright. 00:11:21.670 --> 00:11:37.185 I can tell you that this concentration, is going to build on elements from the original masters in psychology program, areas like human formation, motivation, group dynamics. 00:11:37.965 --> 00:11:39.585 But it's gonna go much deeper. 00:11:39.725 --> 00:11:40.225 Alright? 00:11:40.845 --> 00:11:52.620 It adds practical leadership development, conflict management, and program strategy to better prepare you for real world roles across a wide range of settings. 00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:53.980 Alright? 00:11:54.920 --> 00:12:09.435 This concentration's really gonna be designed for students who wanna grow as leaders, and that could literally health care, human services. 00:12:11.015 --> 00:12:15.515 It'll cover a broad scope of areas that you can use this concentration. 00:12:16.700 --> 00:12:26.080 You'll learn how to lead people, programs, and organizations with both practical skills and deep insight, into the human person. 00:12:26.940 --> 00:12:41.135 So the interesting thing about this one as well is that it's also going to support those pursuing the SHRM, the a s h, RM certification or recertification. 00:12:42.555 --> 00:12:46.960 So, that stands for Society for Human Resources Management. 00:12:48.700 --> 00:12:57.280 So it's it's one of the most recognized credentials for professionals in HR management and organizational leadership. 00:12:58.215 --> 00:12:58.715 Okay? 00:12:59.495 --> 00:13:02.955 So that is your organizational leadership. 00:13:03.095 --> 00:13:07.435 And now we'll look at pastoral and spiritual care. 00:13:08.615 --> 00:13:23.260 So this concentration pulls from some of the most meaningful parts of the original program like human growth, flourishing, and the Catholic Christian understanding of the person, but it goes deeper as well. 00:13:24.520 --> 00:13:27.100 The concentration is not just for pastors. 00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:27.720 Alright? 00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:35.775 It's to track for anyone who feels called to accompany others through suffering, crisis, or spiritual growth. 00:13:36.075 --> 00:13:36.475 Alright? 00:13:36.475 --> 00:13:43.935 So it could be chaplaincy, it could be ministry, health care, hospice, prisons, and even some corporate settings. 00:13:44.530 --> 00:13:45.030 Alright? 00:13:47.010 --> 00:14:11.780 With this one, the interesting little extra is that it supports those pursuing chaplaincy certification through organizations, like NACC, which is the National Association of Catholic Chaplains, and the DCCI, which is the board of Chaplaincy certification, Inc. 00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:12.240 Alright? 00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:20.900 And those are often required for spiritual care roles, in hospitals, hospice, prisons, or military settings. 00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:24.500 Those are your two new concentrations. 00:14:25.955 --> 00:14:31.335 So I would love to know, you know, where's everybody at? 00:14:31.475 --> 00:14:35.555 Where do you see yourself in either one or the other? 00:14:35.555 --> 00:14:38.995 Is it is it something that looks interesting to you? 00:14:38.995 --> 00:14:40.375 What your feelings are? 00:14:43.530 --> 00:14:44.030 Okay. 00:14:44.250 --> 00:14:47.870 Let's go on to look at now. 00:14:49.450 --> 00:14:57.765 These are the foundation classes that made up each of those six concentrations that we had previously. 00:14:58.065 --> 00:14:58.565 Alright? 00:14:59.025 --> 00:15:06.085 So moving forward, four of these are definitely moving into both concentrations. 00:15:07.025 --> 00:15:08.725 The helping people flourish. 00:15:10.190 --> 00:15:10.930 I'm sorry. 00:15:11.070 --> 00:15:27.045 Helping people flourish, a Catholic Christian understanding of the person, the human growth and development across the lifespan, cognition and emotion and motivation, and the social psychology groups and diversity. 00:15:27.045 --> 00:15:30.825 So these four will move into each of those concentrations. 00:15:31.685 --> 00:15:32.085 Alright? 00:15:32.085 --> 00:15:33.385 We're not losing those. 00:15:35.125 --> 00:15:40.760 So just briefly, the helping people flourish. 00:15:40.820 --> 00:15:43.780 This is the first class that you will take. 00:15:43.780 --> 00:15:46.980 It's taken alone, and everybody starts with that one. 00:15:46.980 --> 00:15:49.320 It's kind of like the foundation for the rest. 00:15:49.700 --> 00:15:50.200 Alright? 00:15:51.305 --> 00:16:03.965 For that one, you discover really how psychology and faith come together to explore human dignity, well-being and flourishing through that Catholic Christian perspective. 00:16:04.700 --> 00:16:05.200 Alright?

00:25:04.685 --> 00:25:13.610 Now we're gonna go on a little trip here to the web page, the financial aid web page. 00:25:13.670 --> 00:25:14.170 Okay? 00:25:14.870 --> 00:25:17.350 So financial there's so much good stuff here. 00:25:17.350 --> 00:25:20.410 So first of all, we'll start with the scholarships and grants. 00:25:20.470 --> 00:25:20.970 Okay? 00:25:21.865 --> 00:25:24.265 These are what we have basically in house. 00:25:24.265 --> 00:25:25.485 This is what we offer. 00:25:25.545 --> 00:25:27.945 There's something for everybody here. 00:25:27.945 --> 00:25:35.760 So you go down this list and see what it is that you are eligible for. 00:25:35.840 --> 00:25:36.240 Alright? 00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:38.420 There's just a whole list of things here. 00:25:38.800 --> 00:25:39.300 Alright? 00:25:39.600 --> 00:25:55.995 And, how this typically goes is that after you complete your application, it kinda gets the ball rolling, and financial aid, will do their thing on their end, and you'll have a meeting with them, a one on one meeting with financial aid. 00:25:56.775 --> 00:26:08.940 And, you want to let them know, what it is that you think you're gonna try to, apply for, all the things that you are eligible for. 00:26:08.940 --> 00:26:09.340 Okay? 00:26:09.340 --> 00:26:11.120 Some of these, they have criteria. 00:26:11.180 --> 00:26:15.340 Some of them, you might have to write an essay and but just go through that. 00:26:15.340 --> 00:26:22.335 But in addition to that, if you go, again, financial aid tab, go down to tuition partnerships. 00:26:22.715 --> 00:26:26.315 Now this list is not even the exhaustive list. 00:26:26.315 --> 00:26:34.175 This is a partial list of affiliations that we have with other diocese and organizations and schools. 00:26:34.635 --> 00:26:47.380 So it's important for you to let financial aid know in that meeting that you have with them all of the affiliations because then what financial aid does is they find biggest bang for your buck. 00:26:47.380 --> 00:26:50.895 So each of these, they all have their, discounts. 00:26:51.035 --> 00:26:52.655 They all have discounts available. 00:26:52.715 --> 00:27:01.595 And so financial aid does their their work, and, they will find everything that they can to help get that tuition down. 00:27:01.595 --> 00:27:02.095 Alright? 00:27:02.715 --> 00:27:05.720 Now here's another tab. 00:27:06.740 --> 00:27:08.680 I only just learned of this. 00:27:09.300 --> 00:27:12.820 So, I'll show it to you, the types of aids. 00:27:12.820 --> 00:27:19.495 So this is just describing some of the things I just talked about, but different options for you to to consider. 00:27:20.755 --> 00:27:26.215 Here's what I just learned about, the alternative private loan programs. 00:27:26.995 --> 00:27:28.375 Please check this out. 00:27:28.435 --> 00:27:44.660 So you go in here, select your program, choose graduate, and then, it's going to pop up some different options as far as loans out there that you can apply for. 00:27:46.085 --> 00:27:54.485 Some of the interest rates might be better than the student loans, so you're gonna wanna check this out and see if it's an option for you. 00:27:54.485 --> 00:27:54.985 Okay? 00:27:55.445 --> 00:27:57.205 There's a lot to look at here. 00:27:57.205 --> 00:27:58.800 I threw a lot at you. 00:27:58.800 --> 00:28:09.460 And what I'll do is if you are interested, I can follow everybody up with an email that includes these links, or I can let me see. 00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:19.875 I actually copied them down somewhere, and the links to the page, so that you can go back and check it out yourself. 00:28:19.875 --> 00:28:20.375 Alright? 00:28:20.675 --> 00:28:23.415 It is under the financial aid tab. 00:28:24.835 --> 00:28:25.735 Here we go. 00:28:26.230 --> 00:28:28.050 I found it. 00:28:28.630 --> 00:28:32.970 I'll put it in the chat, and, you can check those out. 00:28:33.190 --> 00:28:33.510 K? 00:28:33.510 --> 00:28:40.010 I know finances, it's a big one for people, and we understand that. 00:28:42.465 --> 00:28:47.925 So we do what we can, on our end. 00:28:48.465 --> 00:28:51.125 Also, before I leave this page I'm sorry. 00:28:51.745 --> 00:28:52.725 Cash plans. 00:28:52.785 --> 00:28:54.145 So we do have cash plans. 00:28:54.145 --> 00:28:55.505 They are interest free. 00:28:55.505 --> 00:28:58.340 It's kinda like when you set up a car payment. 00:28:58.340 --> 00:28:59.560 It's a month to month. 00:29:00.020 --> 00:29:00.520 Alright? 00:29:00.740 --> 00:29:04.040 That brings that number down as well to where it's more manageable. 00:29:04.500 --> 00:29:13.875 But unlike unlike a car payment, see, when you drive your, your degree off of the lot, it will not depreciate. 00:29:13.935 --> 00:29:15.955 It'll it'll increase in value. 00:29:16.095 --> 00:29:19.395 So little something for you. 00:29:20.175 --> 00:29:20.675 Alright. 00:29:21.135 --> 00:29:32.750 So the sixteen month and the twenty six month, this is also going to remain the same in, for the the restructuring of the master's in psychology program and how we did it before. 00:29:32.750 --> 00:29:33.570 This remains. 00:29:34.430 --> 00:29:39.745 The sixteen month, you can see here, it it offers a reduction in tuition. 00:29:39.805 --> 00:29:45.105 So that's definitely a consideration when you're, you know, tracking pennies. 00:29:45.965 --> 00:29:48.145 The twenty six month is your traditional. 00:29:48.205 --> 00:29:51.905 It's what most graduate programs kinda linger around that time. 00:29:52.920 --> 00:29:55.260 So what does this look like? 00:29:55.560 --> 00:30:04.575 Well, obviously, you get through faster with the sixteen month, but you have to kinda really look at what you've got going on in your life and and think about it. 00:30:05.055 --> 00:30:06.735 It's great to get through it faster. 00:30:06.735 --> 00:30:11.155 It's definitely possible we would never set you up for failure. 00:30:11.295 --> 00:30:14.995 So, that said, this is what it looks like. 00:30:16.175 --> 00:30:21.260 Sixteen month is you're taking two classes at a time, basically. 00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:21.900 Alright? 00:30:22.280 --> 00:30:25.020 Twenty six month, you're taking one class at a time. 00:30:25.560 --> 00:30:41.355 So practically speaking and time commitment wise, with the sixteen month, for one class, alright, you're looking at anywhere from between eight and fifteen hours per week per class. 00:30:41.895 --> 00:30:48.760 And I know that's like a a vast time, you know, what do you say? 00:30:48.820 --> 00:30:50.680 There's a big that's a big gap. 00:30:50.740 --> 00:30:51.140 Right? 00:30:51.140 --> 00:30:52.040 Eight to fifteen. 00:30:52.500 --> 00:30:57.220 But the reason being, some people are gonna move through material faster than others. 00:30:57.220 --> 00:31:09.135 So if you just know that okay, that's the time commitment for one class, it kind of helps you to restructure things, commitments, things, you know, you you have to rework in your life. 00:31:09.835 --> 00:31:14.010 So if you're taking the sixteen month, you're gonna double that. 00:31:14.790 --> 00:31:22.650 And, that's between discussion boards and papers, lectures, all of those things. 00:31:22.870 --> 00:31:25.755 That's what factors in assignments, all of that. 00:31:26.235 --> 00:31:26.555 Alright?

00:43:02.180 --> 00:43:02.680 No. 00:43:02.980 --> 00:43:07.060 So the master's in psychology, it it is a master's degree. 00:43:07.060 --> 00:43:22.235 It does not need to, licensure, but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater because there are many things that you're doing with this degree that you can do in the master's of counseling. 00:43:22.535 --> 00:43:23.675 There really are. 00:43:24.730 --> 00:43:39.305 One of the biggest differentiators between the programs is that the masters of counseling, you get your your license, and, you're equipped to, diagnose and treat mental illness. 00:43:40.085 --> 00:43:41.845 So it's it's clinic work. 00:43:41.845 --> 00:43:42.345 Alright? 00:43:42.405 --> 00:43:51.625 And so if that is where your heart is leading and where you wanna go, then that you definitely need to reach out to Charice or Sarah. 00:43:52.085 --> 00:44:11.515 But, a lot of if you if you have a need if you have the desire to help people, in your community, in your church, this program, I would definitely still consider it. 00:44:11.515 --> 00:44:17.695 Just because it doesn't lead to licensure does not mean that you can't do good work with this. 00:44:19.035 --> 00:44:28.790 I think the best way that I've heard and I I don't know if I'm going to say this exactly, as articulate as I heard it. 00:44:28.790 --> 00:44:33.050 But, it's kind of like the masters in psychology. 00:44:34.005 --> 00:44:37.385 You catch them before they need the master's in counseling. 00:44:38.325 --> 00:44:38.825 Alright? 00:44:38.885 --> 00:44:41.785 So, I don't know before or after. 00:44:43.045 --> 00:44:43.525 But yes. 00:44:43.525 --> 00:44:46.165 So the master's in counseling, it's a longer program. 00:44:46.165 --> 00:44:52.840 It's a four year program, complete with an internship, and you have to do the clinical hours. 00:44:52.840 --> 00:45:06.245 And so, and I know during that program, there are three times that you need to go back to you need to visit our campus in Virginia, for the residency. 00:45:06.705 --> 00:45:11.445 So just a few little differences, but I won't go into any more detail than that. 00:45:12.225 --> 00:45:15.845 That is the job for Charice or Sarah. 00:45:15.985 --> 00:45:17.365 So please reach out. 00:45:18.440 --> 00:45:23.980 And, Robert, email me all that you can about these programs so I can make informed choices. 00:45:24.680 --> 00:45:26.680 Interested in counseling as well. 00:45:26.680 --> 00:45:27.180 Okay. 00:45:28.040 --> 00:45:28.540 Alright. 00:45:29.400 --> 00:45:30.840 Counseling is a great way to go. 00:45:30.840 --> 00:45:33.535 I mean, we're all under the same DMU umbrella. 00:45:33.595 --> 00:45:43.755 So the most important thing is to is to go where you feel your calling is or your heart is or where God's leading you. 00:45:43.755 --> 00:45:47.420 So if it's with the masters of counseling, by all means. 00:45:47.880 --> 00:45:59.635 But I definitely just don't want you to think that the masters in psychology degree, It's just a master's degree. 00:45:59.635 --> 00:46:01.095 You can do a lot with this. 00:46:01.155 --> 00:46:01.655 Alright?
