DOUG BATES LECTURE
DOUG BATES AWARD
The Doug Bates Award grew out of a desire to honor the legacy of an early proponent of high moral and ethical standards for America’s educators. Doug Bates was an attorney with the Utah State Office of Education and served for a number of years as the attorney for NASDTEC. In both roles, Doug was consistent and relentless in his insistence that state licensing agencies and employing school districts effectively screen applicants and monitor all educators for moral fitness.
For a number of years, NASDTEC has included workshops pertaining to professional practices for educators in the programs at its national and regional conferences. In fact, NASDTEC now sponsors a national Professional Practices Institute for practitioners aside from the annual conferences. A little over eleven years ago, it was decided that NASDTEC’s annual conference should also include a formal presentation, entitled the “Doug Bates Lecture,” specifically devoted to professional practices. Speakers were chosen on the basis of their demonstrated commitment to the ideals of NASDTEC in the area of educator moral fitness.
Beginning this year, we have changed the format slightly from a lecture series to an award to a person selected by our Professional Practices Committee. Selection for the award is based on a number of factors designed to recognize individuals whose careers have advanced the ideals that NASDTEC stands for. We express our appreciation to the Evaluation Systems group of Pearson for their continuing sponsorship of the luncheon and award presentation,
We are honored to present the first Doug Bates Award to Dr. Gary Walker of the Georgia Professional Standards Commission as a result of his dedication to the guiding principles of NASDTEC and to the high ethical and moral standards that were Doug’s trademark. Gary’s biography is included in the Speaker Biography section in this program book.
