  2. A career history of the nominee. A biography, resume, or curriculum vitae of the nominee’s achievements during his or her teaching career. This document may focus on teaching positions, student accomplishments, publications, performances, teaching awards, or other honors received.

A nominee will not be considered further for this award if nomination materials are incomplete.

Nominations will be accepted from any PAS member, while nominees need not be PAS members. Names of those nominated will be given consideration for 3 years from the time of their last letter of nomination.

Nominations should include the name and address of the nominator and be sent to Lifetime Achievement in Education Award, PAS, 32 E. Washington, Suite 1400, Indianapolis, IN 46204-3516.
