At the June 3, 2010 VLEPSC Executive Board meeting, the Commission announced Major Rebecca Edwards, Spotsylvania Co. Sheriff's Office as the recipient of the 2010 Executive Board Award.
Retired Chief John Skinner nominated Edwards in a letter the Commission, stating,
"As you know, each year the VLEPSC Board recognizes one of our many dedicated and professional volunteers who give their time and themselves to staffing the many VLEPSC and VALEAC Committees, Subcommittees and serve as assessors and team leaders to ensure the important business of State Accreditation is accomplished. It is my honor and privilege to forward the below recommendation to you for consideration by yourself and the Board for this year’s Executive Board Award:
Major Rebecca Edwards, Spotsylvania Co. Sheriff's Office
Major Edwards has been involved in state accreditation for well over 5 years. She recently completed her two-year term as Chairperson for VALEAC and has been very active in trying to provide quality training to members of VALEAC. During these tough economic times, Major Edwards recommended to VALEAC that they suspend the 2009 and 2010 Spring conferences. This was a very difficult decision for her to make, realizing how important these conferences are to the Accreditation Managers around the State. Major Edwards was able to coordinate regional trainings on pertinent topics, such as Basic Accreditation Manager and Assessor Development, to ensure our Accreditation Assessors and Managers are provided timely information and training. She made difficult decisions during difficult times, while managing to promote the mission of VALEAC and VLEPSC.
I respectfully nominate Major Rebecca Edwards, Spotsylvania Sheriff’s Office for consideration of the 2010 VLEPSC Executive Board Annual Award."
Congratulations to Becca for earning this distinguished award!
