Nominations will come from the student chain of command to the Small Group Leader. While academics are critically important, the ultimate mission of the Noncommissioned Officer Academy is to produce technically and tactically proficient "LEADERS". Leadership is the most powerful and important combat multiplier, and its effect will be felt from the first battle to the last. The following procedure will be used to determine the Commandant's Leadership Award Winner:

Student chain of command will solicit nominations from students.

Each SGL will submit to the School Chief the name of student(s) whom the student chain of command nominated.

The School Chief will conduct a board using leadership as the major focus. The School Chief will then combine the board results (board evaluation and student input) to determine the Leadership Award Winner(s).
