The NDSU Staff Senate, in partnership with the Office of Human Resources/Payroll, is asking the NDSU community to submit nominations for the 2021 Staff Recognition Awards.

The awards acknowledge outstanding achievement on the job, exceptional contributions toward the effectiveness and efficiency of operations or outstanding service to other employees, students or visitors. The awards also honor distinguished efforts in staff development.

Nominations of broadbanded staff members in two categories – Individual Awards and a Team/Committee Award – will be accepted until Monday, March 15, at 5 p.m.

Up to 10 individual awards will be given based on broadbanded percentages at NDSU. A single Team/Committee Award also will be given to a team of two to 10 members.

Individual Award winners receive $250 cash awards. The Team/Committee award winner will receive a $600 cash award (maximum of $250 per individual team member). Winners are scheduled to be announced and recognized at the June 2 Staff Senate meeting. Individual Award recipients also will be considered for Governor's Awards.

Nomination forms and guidelines are available online.

As a student-focused, land-grant, research university, we serve our citizens.
