2012 Project Excellence and TB Educator of the Year Awards

The TB Education and Training Network (TB ETN) is accepting nominations for two awards:

  • Project Excellence Award
  • TB Educator of the Year Award

These two awards were established to recognize excellence in TB health education and training by TB ETN members around the world.  The awards will be presented during the annual TB ETN conference (September 18-20, 2012) in Atlanta, GA.

To be considered for recognition, a completed nomination form, along with supporting documentation, must be received by TB ETN no later than July 18, 2012. Submissions will be reviewed by the TB ETN Conference Planning Workgroup and the TB ETN Steering Committee.

Eligibility

  • Hold an “active” TB ETN membership*
