Can you all provide feedback on Ashley's questions below. My knee jerk reaction is that at least the recipient needs to be and NCEA member. I look forward to your prompt response.

Book a meeting here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://calendly.com/hellojessicag__;!!PvXuogZ4… From: Ashley Fenning <astevens4(a)nebraska.edu> Sent: Tuesday, October 21, 2025 1:47 PM To: Jessica Groskopf <jgroskopf2(a)nebraska.edu> Subject: NCEA Award Nomination and Nominee Guidelines Hi Jessica, I received this questions: A co-worker who is not a member of NCEA submitted a NCEA Award application for another colleague who is also not an NCEA member (come to find out it is for the Outstanding Support Staff Award). They are wondering if that is ok or if a NCEA member needs to submit the NCEA award application. So I started rabbit hole thinking and I think we approved to allow support staff to be members of NCEA. Is that correct? I couldn't find it in the bylaws, it says, Any Extension Specialist, Educator or Managerial-Professional Staff Person (4-H Assistant, Extension Technologist, Program Assistant, 4-H Aide or the equivalent)receiving a salary from Cooperative Extension. (Including but not limited to all funding sources such as county, state and grant funds) So, my questions for you: * Do nominators need to be NCEA members? * Do recipients need to be NCEA members? (I know outside partner in education wouldn't be members or possibly Excellence in extension advocacy, but what about support staff?) Please let me know your thoughts and suggestions, or if I need to ask others, I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks!

No July Meeting, See You in Aug
by Jessica Groskopf 07 Jul '25

07 Jul '25

NCEA Executive Committee, We had a light meeting today - see my notes from today's meeting below. We are going to skip a meeting in July. In August, we hope to get an update from Brett on streamlining bylaws and Megan on Conference planning. Please complete the following poll, to select a meeting time in August: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://calendly.com/d/cv6f-2wv-tcm/augexec__;!… . JUNE MEETING NOTES: * Officer Updates * President, Jessica - No Update * Vice President, Amy - Working on Newsletter * Secretary, Stephanie - Absent * Treasurer, Ben - Report same as previous meeting. * Section Updates * 4-H, Beth - Absent * Ag, Wayne - Absent * ANREP/NACDEP, Jamie - Working on recruiting a potential new member * FCS, Hannah - Absent * ESP, Rhonda - ESP is preparing for their upcoming conference in Fort Worth * 2025 NCEA Fall Conference Update, Megan - Absent * New Business * 2026 NCEA Fall Conference * Megan posed some questions about location for 2026. Members in attendance agreed we are open to moving outside of Central Nebraska. In the past, the conference rotated around the state, which allowed for local tours and helped spotlight different regions. We'd love to see that rotation return, and we'd like it to be intentional and consistent going forward. Our main concern is the budget. For reference: In 2025, we're paying approximately $1,200 for facility rental and $124.95 per hotel room. In 2024, food costs (meals, coffee, snacks) totaled around $6,500. If we can keep the 2026 event within or below this cost range, that would be ideal. We'd also like to have the 2026 location confirmed no later than September 15, 2025. * Future NCEA Conferences * There was also discussion that their needs to be more structure for the Professional Development Committee. Possibly having a "3 chair" set up. Allowing someone to have their "hands on the reins" of each Conference, from the beginning of the planning process. As they move from Chair-Designate, to Chair-Elect, to Chair, they would maintain the decision-making power over the conference they began with... allowing for greater continuity. See example below. * Chair: 2025 Conference * Chair- Elect: 2026 Conference * Chair- Designate: 2027 Conference * Upcoming Meetings * Skip July Exec meeting * Next Exec meeting in Aug - Want an update from Megan and Brett * Next Full Board Meeting Sept. 30 [cid:image001.gif@01DBE753.1890B480] Jessica Groskopf Exten Educator Director, Nebraska Women in Agriculture University of Nebraska-Lincoln Panhandle Rsch & Ext Center 3086321247<tel:3086321247> | jgroskopf2(a)unl.edu<mailto:jgroskopf2@unl.edu> | wia(a)unl.edu<mailto:wia@unl.edu> Need to meet with me?
