Superior Accomplishment Awards Nomination Period: Sept. 12 through Oct. 31

Jodi D. Gentry, Vice President for Human Resource Services

I am pleased to announce a call for nominations for the University of Florida’s Superior Accomplishment Awards program.  The purpose of the program, now in its 28th year, is to recognize Academic Personnel; Technical, Executive, Administrative, Managerial and Support (TEAMS) employees; and University Support Personnel System (USPS) employees who have contributed outstanding service in their fields during the academic year of Aug. 1, 2015, to July 31, 2016.

Please don’t miss this chance to recognize those among us who make the extra effort to contribute.  This year’s nomination period will run from Sept. 12 through Oct. 31, 2016.

Division-level winners of the Superior Accomplishment Awards, along with the Diversity & Inclusion in the Workplace and Community Service winners from each division, receive $200, a certificate of appreciation and a university memento.  Division winners are then eligible to be selected for one of six university-level awards of $2,000 each or one of eight $1,000 awards. In addition, each of the six university-level winners, and the winner of the Diversity & Inclusion award and the Community Service award, and his or her guest will be invited to attend a University of Florida football game in the President’s Box next season.

For additional information about the Superior Accomplishment Awards program—including division information and nomination criteria and forms—please visit the awards’ website at http://hr.ufl.edu/learn-grow/awards-recognition/superior-accomplishment-awards. Division-level award committees are responsible for the nomination processes and for winner selections in their divisions.  Self-nominations are not accepted.

The success of this program depends on all of our participation as we seek to express appreciation for exceptional employees and their superior accomplishments.  Thank you for your support.
