On behalf of the Staff Council we would like to say CONGRATULATIONS to Allison Nespor, Staff Secretary III in the Department of Educational Psychology, for being selected as the April recipient of our Staff Star Award!
Some of the things Allison’s nominator said about her are:
· In addition to her duties within the counseling programs clinic, Allison is the administrative assistant for the Nebraska Internship Consortium in Professional Psychology. Our consortium is one of the largest APA-accredited sites in the country. It is not an understatement when I say that this site would not run without Allison.
· Allison consistently goes above and beyond her job responsibilities. She is intimately involved in organizing our training, board meetings and site administration. We have 35 interns across five agencies that have interns from Chadron to Nebraska City. The administration of this consortium is enormous and Allison handles it with ease. She also provides innovative ideas to training problems and is seen as the go-to person by all.
· Allison also makes it her mission to get to know all interns. In order to accomplish her tasks, she needs strong interpersonal skills, a high level of organization and creative thinking. She shows these qualities on a weekly basis.
So, if you get a chance, stop by room 49 in Teachers College Hall and congratulate Allison. She is very deserving of this award!
Reminder: If you know of a staff member who you believe goes above and beyond their scope of duties, make sure and nominate them! Even if they do not receive the award the first time they are nominated…..they can be nominated over and over again until they do.
