Can more than one person work on the Recognition Program application at one time?
Yes. In fact, it is recommended that team members be assigned to complete a first pass of each section (with assignments based on consideration of team member expertise). In addition to distributing the work so that no one team member is overburdened, it also expedites the completion of the application. The online application supports this approach by allowing more the one user to enter data on their schools application at the same time. Care must be taken to assign data entry to only one user per section to prevent one team member from overwriting another persons work. Although many team members can work on the Recognition Program application at one time, it is important that the team as a whole reach consensus on answers prior to submitting the application. It is also vital that the school principal be involved and approve the application prior to submission.
