Tables and Illustrations

JCBE encourages the inclusion of tables, figures, illustrations, and images. Please include a short descriptive
label and submit as separate files. These items should not be embedded in the submission text though the author
may indicate where such items should be placed (e.g., [Image 1]).

Authors should include any necessary attribution and are responsible for obtaining appropriate permission from
copyright holders to reproduce tables, figures, illustrations, or images.

Manuscripts

JCBE publishes both full-length articles and shorter pieces or essays on topics of importance to competency-
based education. Manuscripts should be carefully reviewed and proofread prior to submission. Accepted
manuscripts are peer reviewed and will go through JCBE's editorial review process prior to publication.

Articles may report original research or well-documented case studies and should be between 3000 and 8000
words in length. Shorter pieces and essays may present research notes, book reviews, reactions to research,
commentaries, or, policy reviews and should be limited to no more than 2500 words. These shorter works
present an individual's point-of-view and may not require the depth of analysis and supporting documentation
expected of longer articles.

Authors are encouraged to provide sources for information, which should be cited parenthetically in the text and
included in a reference list at the end of the manuscript using APA formatting. Footnotes are to be used
sparingly.

Copyright

Prior to publication, each author will be required to sign a contributor agreement. Authors will retain copyright
ownership of their work and JCBE will be granted a sole and exclusive license to publish.
