Volunteer faculty for 2001-2002 academic year honored

By Chris Nguyen

The Faculty Recognition Awards Ceremony for the 2001-2002 academic year was held on May 14 to recognize and honor FDA employees who planned, developed and taught courses to their colleagues. They provided subject matter knowledge, conducted research and developed lesson plans on their own time and without compensation in addition to performing their current jobs. Their efforts support CDER's mission by providing training and orientation to CDER staff.

To say "thank you" to CDER faculty for their hard work, the Division of Training and Development in the Office of Training and Communications holds an annual recognition ceremony. The education and training mission of the Center cannot be fulfilled without their support.

Opening remarks were provided by Nancy D. Smith, Ph.D., OTCOM's director, and .Janice Newcomb, DTD's director. The awards were presented by DTD's project managers.

The courses, retreats, workshops and individual faculty recognized were:
