Information and Tips for Nominators
- Nomination packets must include only original documentation prepared specifically for the NACADA Awards Program. Materials intended for other award programs will not be considered.
- Self-nominations are acceptable. Directors may nominate their own advising programs.
- Current members of the Board of Directors and Council are not eligible for consideration for any annual NACADA individual awards. After the member's term of office is over, s/he may then be eligible for consideration.
- Nomination materials submitted cannot be returned.
- Retiree Recognition: Individuals who retired in the calendar year prior to the nominating year are eligible for consideration.
To help present your nomination in the best possible light:
- Paper copies of nominations will no longer be accepted. All uploaded documents must be in pdf format, so save them in this format, or scan and then save them in pdf format so you will be ready to upload at the proper time.
- It is best to submit only letters and/or materials that add substance to the nomination. Quality is appreciated more than quantity. A well-written and documented submission increases the likelihood of a positive outcome.
- The committee will not accept or consider additional material sent separately from your on-line submission or letters sent directly to the committee. Be sure to request that all support letters and documentation be returned to the nominator gathering the information for inclusion in the nomination packets for online submission.
- Videos, CDs and DVDs will not be accepted in support of any nomination in any
Regional Awards
category.
- Submissions that do not meet the submission requirements will not be evaluated.
- Contact NACADA at nacada@ksu.edu if you do not receive an e-mail confirming receipt of your nomination after you have completed the online submission process. If possible, include the application # and the Region #.
