Guidelines and Nomination Form - Professional Services Recognition Awards

How to nominate

In order for the nomination to be successful the judging panel needs to know exactly what the team or individual has done to make a difference.  When nominating, consider the following:

• Select the award you are nominating the team or individual for.  You can only nominate once gainst each award.  If you wish to nominate a colleague for more than one award that is acceptable.  Incomplete forms will be returned
• Complete the description of why you believe the team or individual deserves the award (50-300 words) - remember you need to grab the Judges' attention, so just saying 'Joe Blogs is fantastic' doesn't quite explain why they should receive an award
• Outline the task or situation/set the scene
• State what action the individual or team took.  This can be in the format of supporting or encouraging others, completing a task, generating a workable solution or any other behaviour that is relevant to the award
• Clearly describe the result of the above.  What impact did the actions or behaviour have in the workplace or University?
• All forms must be submitted by Monday 2 April 2012.
