ACTE Policymaker of the Year award call for nominations.

The ACTE Policymaker of the Year award is presented annually by the ACTE Board of Directors to nationally recognized policy makers who have made a significant contribution to career and technical education. The award is presented to the individual or individuals who are determined to have made the most significant impact on policy related to career and technical education either during the past year or over an extended career of public service. Nominations may come from the Board of Directors, the ACTE Public Policy Department or from ACTE members; each nominee from the membership must be endorsed or sponsored by an association, agency, group, several individuals or a combination of these.

Groups nominating an individual for this award should submit a cover letter stating the nominee's qualifications for the award and include supporting information listing significant legislative and other appropriate accomplishments related to career and technical education. Nominations are due by November 1, 2005, and should be submitted to the ACTE Public Policy Department by fax [phone]), e-mail ([e-mail]) or mail (1410 King Street, Alexandria, VA 22314).

The Legislative Committee and Board of Directors will select the award recipient in December 2005 and the award will be presented in Washington, D.C., during the 2006 National Policy Seminar. Please contact Alisha Hyslop in ACTE's Public Policy Department at 703-683-9331 for more information.
