Regional Advisor of the Year Award: United States
Postmark Deadline: Deadline Passed


Description
: Golden Key chapter advisors provide a valuable service to the Society and to its members. The annual Advisor of the Year Awards is one way that Golden Key recognizes the contributions of chapter advisors. At the next Golden Key International Conference, several outstanding advisors will be recognized for their positive impact at their local chapter and for involvement in Golden Key regional and international activities. Chapter officers are encouraged to nominate deserving advisors.

The Regional Advisor of the Year Awards recognize one Golden Key advisor in each of Golden Key’s 13 regions for outstanding service and leadership. The selected advisors will receive a commemorative plaque and $500 (USD). The winners of these awards are forwarded as candidates for the prestigious International Advisor of the Year Award.

Eligibility: All currently active Golden Key chapter advisors (not graduate advisors) who have served for at least one full academic year (can be at different institutions) may apply for or be nominated for these awards. These awards will typically be made to one individual advisor but in exceptional cases may be awarded to a team of two or more advisors when recommended by a single chapter. The current Council of Advisors and International Leadership Council members and board members may not apply or be nominated. An advisor may not win an international award more often than every second year. An advisor may also not win a regional award more often than every second year.
