Early each academic year, NISOD member presidents select individuals at their colleges who have defined the best in teaching and learning practices that encourage student achievement. These individuals are subsequently honored for their contributions at NISOD’s International Conference on Teaching and Leadership Excellence, held each year in Austin.

This year marks the 33rd annual NISOD International Conference on Teaching and Leadership Excellence, honoring over 1,200 dedicated community college educators for outstanding contributions to the field. More than 700 community colleges around the world are NISOD members, including almost every large community college district, the majority of urban and technical colleges in the United States and Canada, and more than 200 small, rural colleges around the world.
