FACAA Members,

We are now accepting nominations for the FACAA Young Professional Award. If you know of an agent who consistently develops and conducts outstanding programs and is beginning to play an active role in our professional association, please send a brief paragraph declaring their nomination. Each nominee will then be contacted and asked to complete an application which will be judged by the New Member Relations Committee. The award recipient will be recongized at the FAEP Conference in September.

The following are guidelines for the Young Professional Award:

1. Eligibility is open to any member of the Florida Association of County Agricultural Agents who has served as an agent for no less than three (3) years and no more than five (5) years.

2. Members may only receive this award once.

3. Nominations will be from current FACAA members (county or state faculty). Individuals may not nominate themselves.

4. Nominees will be informed of their nomination by the Chairman of the FACAA New Member Relations Committee. Each nominee must then complete the
FACAA Young Professional Award Application Form which includes program accomplishments, honors/recognition, and professional activity since
employment with UF Extension. Application forms must be returned to the Chairman of the FACAA New Member Relations Committee.

5. The FACAA New Member Relations Committee will judge all entries. If one of the committee members is nominated for this award they will be ineligible to judge the entries. The Committee will consider the nominee's professional performance, competence, and activity in selecting the award recipient. All decisions of the committee will be final.

 

Thanks,

Adrian Hunsberger, Chair                                     
New Member Relations Committee
