The League for Innovation has been dedicated to informing, inspiring, and celebrating innovation in learning, teaching, staff development, and student success for over 50 years. Since 2012, we’ve been recognizing outstanding faculty, staff, and leaders in the community college field who have made a significant difference in the lives of students and in the communities their colleges serve with Excellence Awards.

From September 1 to December 1, 2023, we invite all League Board and Alliance member colleges and systems to submit* the name(s) of those at their institutions who exemplify exceptional teaching and leadership for 2023-2024 League Excellence Awards. Each member institution determines its own eligibility criteria, procedures, and selection protocol for the Excellence Awards.

*The designated Excellence Awards contact at each institution is responsible for administering this award and submitting names.
