Theda Sannit Outstanding Educator
The Theda Sannit Outstanding Educator Award was established to recognize an outstanding educator in the field of neurodiagnostics. Nominations for this prestigious award can be made by the ASET membership, with the recipient being selected by a vote of the ASET Board of Trustees. The award may be bestowed on an individual only once.
Eligibility and Selection Criteria for the Outstanding Educator: The educator may be a technologist or physician with the following:
- A minimum of five years experience in neurodiagnostics
- Professional contributions in the area of publications, teaching/training, and/or educational development
- Demonstration of educational expertise in both national and regional society involvement, such as directing programs, providing instruction, and creating training materials
- Teaching experience in a formal neurodiagnostic program is desirable but not required for nomination eligibility
To recommend a candidate for nomination, please send the name of the person with a brief note stating the reason for your recommendation to Riki Rager, ASET Award Committee Chair. The deadline for submitting recommendations is May 15, 2019.
The Award Committee will review those recommended and present a list of names to the ASET Board of Trustees for vote. The award is given to the chosen recipient at the annual conference. Theda Sannit was the first recipient of this award in 1990.
