Re: Engineering Mentors Attitude/Role Towards Their NEM Counterparts

That is correct, Andy, any adult on the team is eligible to be nominated.* However the award was not intended to recognize the areas that most NEMs are involved in, so a corresponding award for the non-technical side would be appreciated. Especially since teams often focus on non-technical topics pre- and post- build season and NEMs often work on the teams for longer periods of time.

*I believe the description was changed in 2005 or 2006 to remove the criteria that the mentor had to be an engineer or teacher. Prior to that time we were not eligible for the WFFA.
