Call for 2009 NISOD Award Nominations!


 Do you know of or have you worked with an outstanding junior full time-teaching faculty or professional staff member?

This is the time of year to consider nominating those individuals for the NISOD (National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development) award. The NISOD award is designed to honor those who have, in some way, gone above and beyond their job responsibilities to make our college a better place to learn and to work.  We are proud to recognize those individuals who, despite their relatively short period of service, contribute so much to the Monroe Community College community.

The award is intended for individuals with 3-7 years of service at MCC who have no previous years of service elsewhere in the same capacity.

Candidates with more than 7 years of service at MCC (as a full time member of the college) are not eligible.

Candidates with more than 7 years of combined service at MCC and other institutions in the same capacity are also not eligible. Previous recipients, VPs, and the president of the college are not eligible.

Please note that in recent years the eligibility rules had been extended to up to 10 years of service. In keeping with the intent and spirit of this award, the criteria have been revised back to the original 3-7 year rule. As this is a transition year, the committee will consider nominations of outstanding individuals with up to 10 years of service for 2009 only.

It is the responsibility of the nominator to collect letters of recommendation, from which no less than two and no more than three should be submitted. These letters should indicate as clearly as possible how the individual has gone above and beyond their job responsibilities.

In addition, the nominator may also choose to write their own letter highlighting key points.

Please submit ten copies of all materials by 12 noon Monday, November 2nd, 2009. They should be submitted to Carmen Powers; 5-214; 585-292-3367
