TSCPA Outstanding Accounting Educator Award
The Outstanding Accounting Educator awards recognize Texas accounting educators who have demonstrated excellence in teaching and have distinguished themselves through active service to the accounting profession.
The award recipients will be honored before their peers during TSCPA’s Accounting Education Conference. Recipients receive a $500 award, a recognition plaque and complimentary registration to the conference.
Only one Outstanding Accounting Educator Award may be awarded in each category. Awards will not be given in categories where judges determine that the entries do not merit them.
Categories and Criteria
Nominations for the annual awards may be submitted by Texas colleges, universities, community colleges, TSCPA chapters and members. The deadline for nominations is March 1, 2016. Incomplete nominations will not be considered. Download the nomination form.
