Professional Employee of the Month Archives

TMCC General Image

The Professional Employee of the Month Award is given to a full-time professional employee—either academic or administrative faculty—who regularly goes above and beyond for students, co-workers and staff members. A total of 10 awards—one for each month of the academic school year—will be given each year.

Nominations are collected from employees of the College, and each nominee is considered for the award for three consecutive award months. Recipients of the Professional Employee of the Month Award are able to award one TMCC student a $100 Faculty Senate scholarship.

If you have any questions, please contact the Recognition and Activities Committee chair.
