The GBEC present a set of proposed canonical changes to the Standing Commission on Ministry Development in the fall of 2011 that would: • Authorize the GBEC to prepare a General Ordination Examination that will be administered at seminaries and diocesan locations, and prepare background material for use by the dioceses. • Authorize the evaluation of the GOE by diocesan (or regional) examining chaplains.
