Fall 2024 “Best in Class” Faculty Award Winner: Professor SheKendra Collins

The “Best in Class” Faculty Award

At National American University (NAU), we know that our best teaching assets are our faculty. Our faculty are knowledgeable, dedicated, and caring instructors focused on helping their students succeed. In order to recognize faculty members that go above and beyond to make an impact on their students, we created the “Best in Class” faculty award.

The “Best in Class” faculty award is based on the NAU Core Values: Integrity, Accountability, Pursuit of Excellence, Courage to Act, and Innovation. Many NAU faculty are nominated and demonstrate distinction in one or more of the core values. The competition is fierce!

For the Fall 2024 academic term, NAU’s leadership team is honored and proud to present the “Best in Class” award to SheKendra Collins.

Professor Collins was nominated because she demonstrated the following faculty characteristics:

• Caring
• Committed
• Positive
• Professional

Professor Collins was nominated by Autumn Miller.

Professor SheKendra Collins’ contributions to our team and to NAU students’ success cannot be captured solely in this one award; however, we are grateful for these opportunities to recognize the hard work and dedication of our faculty.
