The award competition begins early in the year. Technical colleges across Georgia identify their most talented instructors and nominate them for the award based on innovative instruction, educational achievement and college and community leadership. To become the state Rick Perkins Award winner, nominees go through three phases of selection: (1) at the college level through the Screening Committee; (2) at the regional level through the Selection Committee, and (3) at the state level competition.
