Mark May 18 to 20 on your calendar and plan to attend this year’s virtual NASBITE International Annual Conference. The conference will provide a rich forum for learning and networking across a broad spectrum of topics related to international business, trade and trade education.
NASBITE conferences are known for their “take-away” value and networking opportunities. Registrants not only share and learn from the many sessions offered on all aspects of global business, but also have the opportunity to network with peers, find out who’s doing what, hear about best practices in trade education and trade assistance, and discover new skills and approaches in export development and marketing.
NASBITE International is committed to advancing international trade by acknowledging professionals in the field who have demonstrated excellence in developing innovative programs and practices that improve international trade through its annual awards program.
Award nominations in the categories outlined below must be submitted no later than Friday, April 16, to be considered for the 2021 Awards Program.
Award nominees are encouraged to attend the 2021 Annual Conference and participate in the Awards Ceremony on May 20.
Advancing International Trade Award
This award recognizes the dedication and service of those who are advancing international trade in each state in the United States as well as Canada and Mexico. These awards may be given to an organization, entity or to a person for individual leadership and commitment to improving the practice of global business on a state or regional level. Award winners (programs or individuals) must have contributed to the advancement of international trade for four or more years. One award will be given per state per year. Nominations may only be made by a NASBITE International Board Member. The nomination form is available here.
Program Excellence Awards
These awards recognize outstanding and innovative developments in the area of international education, counseling, training, trade promotion and research. They are given for specific programs developed by public or private sector trade-related organizations or educational institutions to meet a particular identified need. In recognizing these initiatives, NASBITE is seeking to provide models for others to emulate. Please note that this award is not intended for comprehensive programs composed of a number of components, rather it is intended for specific/focused trade-related initiatives such as a particular trade mission or a specific training program. Awards will be presented in two categories: Educational Programs and Outreach Programs. Educational programs include innovative courses or modules with a trade-related focus, and Outreach Programs include initiatives that are targeted towards the trade-related needs of the business community. The nomination form is available here.
International Trade Educator of the Year Award
The purpose of this award is to recognize innovation and excellence in international trade curriculum development, research, program development, and/or advocacy of international business issues. In giving this award, NASBITE is seeking to honor and highlight the significant contributions of the recipient in expanding and improving the practice of global business so that others might follow.
The program must be ongoing, have a history of demonstrated success, be replicable by other institutions or organizations, and have fostered strategic partnerships and external alliances in program development. The nomination form is available here.
