All winners will be asked to sign the RSC's Code of Conduct Declaration for Recognition. 

Our selection committees base their evaluations primarily on the overall quality of relevant contributions made by nominees and not on quantitative measures. In your nomination, you should show how the team demonstrates impact in one or more of the selection criteria below.

• Demonstrating effectiveness in delivering or supporting teaching and/or assessment.
