- Complete job mastery and performance that far exceeds Northern Arizona University expectations.
- Active support and loyalty to Northern Arizona University, its mission, values, and goals.
Nomination Process
Nominators
- A Northern Arizona University employee can nominate another employee with the approval of the nominee's supervisor and the dean/director/department head. Using the guidelines on the nomination form, the nominator should state the ways the individual nominee meets the criteria. This will include the names and phone numbers of two additional references, who have first-hand knowledge of the nominee’s job performance.
- The screening committee will accept only one completed nomination form per nominated employee.
- It is important that supervisors and/or the nominating party contact references in advance to ensure they are willing and able to provide to the committee information about the individual being nominated.
Deans / Directors / Department Heads
- Deans/directors/department heads review all nominations from their area and decide which to forward through their chain of command to their vice president. There is no set number of nominations that they may forward.
- If the dean/director/department head does not directly report to a vice-president area, the nominations should be forwarded to the next level up in the chain of command for endorsement.
Vice-Presidents
- Each vice president will review all classified staff and service professional nominations and select those they believe warrant further review by the screening committee. All nominations forwarded to the screening committee will be reviewed on behalf of the President.
Screening Committee
- The screening committee will be comprised of past award recipients and a NAU Human Resources representative.
- The screening committee will make recommendations to the President regarding which employees they believe are most deserving of the award.
President
- The President will review the recommendations of the screening committee and determine the final award recipients.
