Employee Recognition

Collin College recognizes that the collective efforts of all staff and faculty members contribute to the overall mission of the college and we strive to create an environment where employees feel valued and know their efforts are appreciated. Collin College has a number of formal recognition programs designed to acknowledge employees for their exemplary contributions and accomplishments.

 

Presidential Medallion
A medallion award-winning employee supports the mission and vision of the college, has a passion for the core values, and also goes above and beyond in their role providing leadership in their department or disciplines to provide support for our students in achieving their educational goals. 

 

Graduate Letter Recognitions
Collin College recognizes the faculty, staff, and administrators who have made a difference in the lives of our Cougar graduates. This recognition takes place at All College Day. 

 

Recognition of Service and Excellence (ROSE) Awards
Collin College's ROSE Award recognizes consistent application of the college's core values through service to the college, staff, students and/or public by Collin College employees.  The nomination and selection process is managed by the Staff Council.

 

Outstanding Professor of the Year Awards
Collin College's Outstanding Processor of the Year Award recognizes outstanding full-time and adjunct faculty based on peer recommendation, division recommendation, student evaluations and/or the public.

 

League Excellence Awards
Each year, Collin College participates in the League Excellence Awards, recognizing outstanding faculty, staff, and leaders who have made a significant difference in the lives of students and in the community.

 

NISOD Excellence Awards
NISOD’s Excellence Awards recognize men and women each year who have demonstrated an outstanding commitment and contribution to their students and colleagues. 

 

Service Anniversaries

Employee service anniversary awards are given for long-term service and loyalty to Collin College. Employees are formally recognized during ceremonies each fall after reaching five years of service and every five-year milestone after. 

 

Random Acts of Core Values 

Any employee may recognize an outstanding colleague who is living Collin College's core values through Staff Council's ongoing recognition program, the Random Acts of Core Values.   

 

Informal Recognition
Many departments have their own informal recognition processes in place, and we encourage individuals to recognize others with emails, thank-you notes, or other means of appreciation.
