Deadlines
It is your responsibility to learn the
deadlines for applications and paper submissions. This information
will be published on this on the Important
Dates page of this web site, and in
conference newsletters. You may always contact the registrar (Stewart
Lewis) to confirm these deadlines. Please be aware that deadlines do
change from year to year because of many different factors. Do not
assume that last year's deadlines will apply this year.
Psychological Assessment
To complete
the requirement for psychological assessment, contact:
Dr. David
Davidson-Methot
ddmethot@yahoo.com
Requirements
are that the Candidate, the candidate's home church and the
BOM will each pay 1/3 of the costs.
Formatting of Papers
Since Board members will most often read your papers on line,
we require the papers to be submitted in a format that facilitates
their placement on the BOOM Secure Web Site.
- Our
preferred format is Microsoft Word. (Email
Stewart Lewis if you have questions about file compatibility.) Papers will be accepted in Microsoft Word (*.doc),
Rich Text (*.rtf), and Adobe Acrobat (*.pdf) formats. Most word processing programs will allow you
to save your work in one or more of these formats.
- Please submit each major section of documents as a
separate file. In other words, you should have a file for
your doctrinal exam, a file for your pastoral care exam, a file
for your exegesis, a file for your sermon, a file for your
teaching plan, etc.
- Please include your name, document title, and date at the
beginning of each paper, i.e., “John W. Candidate, Doctrine
Examination, November 20, 2003.” This should be the first line
of text in your papers.
- Please use standard fonts and page sizes. Endnotes are preferable to footnotes.
- Always keep a hard copy, and an electronic copy, of
your submitted papers. BOOM is not responsible for electronic
transmission errors or files lost in the process of
dissemination. Keep a copy in the event files are lost or
damaged.
