NIST Seeking Baldrige Award Examiners for 1998

July 11, 1997

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is looking for business and quality experts to serve a one-year term on the Board of Examiners that reviews applications for the 1998 Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award. The board consists of approximately 325 members, including nine judges and 60 senior examiners.

Examiners volunteer their time to evaluate applications for the award, prepare feedback reports for applicants and recommend award winners to the NIST director.

Key qualifications include expertise in business, education or health care management, processes and results as well as knowledge of quality practices and improvement strategies.

Information brochures on the Board of Examiners are available by calling 301/ 975-2036. Examiner applications will be available in November.
