Placement Procedures for Alumni
The TEDS Placement office provides alumni with assistance and support in the placement process by providing assistance in résumé writing, offering consultation to alumni regarding the placement process, and offering individual recommendations to ministry opportunities.
The Placement procedure for individuals should proceed as follows:

- Have a Telephone or Personal Interview with the Placement Office.
- TEDS sends résumés to appropriate ministry openings.
- Candidate is contacted directly by the ministry.
Paperwork
Because of our fittedness approach to placement, we require the completion of a number of documents by candidates. These documents include the following:
- Personal Résumé
- Profile Questionnaire: Personal Information Form (PIF)
- Related Ministry Materials (i.e. Doctrinal Statement, Philosophy of Ministry)
These documents need to be filled out and sent to the TEDS Placement office in order to begin the placement process. The Personal Information Form will be retained in the TEDS Placement office and guarantees basic information for our records.
(Please note that some ministries and denominations require additional assessments and profiles for their placement process.)
