Guidelines for Applicants

Eligibility

Membership of ATEM for at least five years, during which time the applicant will have been involved in ATEM activities for at least two years.

Guidelines

Nominations are made by a region Executive or the Association Executive. The Association would normally confer no more than three awards in any one year.

Should the number of nominations for Certificates exceed the number of awards that can be made in any one year, the Awards Committee will rank nominations after taking advice from region Presidents. Under these circumstances, some region nominations may not be accepted, and these can be considered in the following year.

Criteria

• Exemplary service to the Association as an office bearer at the region or Association level.
• Performance of a service or task within a region or across the Association which was beneficial to the Association, and/or to promoting the profession of tertiary education administration and management generally.

Nominations

Nominations for the Certificate of Appreciation should be made on the ATEM Awards Nomination Form, which is available from the ATEM Secretariat or from the related documents section on this page, and are lodged with the Association Secretariat by 31 July each year.

Nominations close on 31 July each year and are considered by the ATEM Awards Committee and forwarded to Council for noting. If a member of the Awards Committee is a nominee for an award, that member shall step down from the Committee until the current round of Awards are determined. The member standing down shall be replaced by a nominee of the President.

Members who have received this award are listed on the Honour Roll.
