Northeastern University Human Resources Management
Star Recognition Certificate

The Star Recognition Certificate program is intended to encourage immediate recognition of the extraordinary contributions of an individual faculty or staff member by any member of the university community.

It is designed to recognize behaviors and contributions that we don't see every day, with results that are above and beyond expectations.

Who is eligible?

The program is open all faculty and staff members of the university community.

How does the program work?

An individual writes a note to the intended recipient on the certificate, and completes the form attached to the certificate. The certificate is detached and placed in the envelope and given directly to the colleague. The form is then sent to HRM.

Each month, HRM will randomly select four individuals from among the certificate recipients and award each of them a $50 American Express gift certificate.
