OAS Excellence Awards

The Administrative Services Excellence Awards Program is an open nomination recognition program, meaning anyone can submit a nomination - supervisors, coworkers, subordinates, and USF employees ouside of Administrative Services. Individuals and teams who are employees of the Office of Administrative Services can be nominated. Nominations are reviewed and scored by the OAS Employee Engagement Team twice per year (Q1/Q2 and Q3/Q4). Scoring is based on 1) commitment, 2) reliability, and 3) "WOW" factor along with the OAS guiding principles: safe, responsive, helpful, and competent. Recipients are announced at the OAS Town Hall events. If you have questions about the program, please contact the Employee Engagement Team at OASEngagement@usf.edu.
