HOW TO BECOME A BALDRIGE EXAMINER WITH THE PARTNERSHIP FOR EXCELLENCE The Partnership for Excellence depends upon volunteer examiners who dedicate hundreds of hours of time, energy and commitment to our mission of “cultivating performance excellence in Ohio, Indiana and West Virginia." Trained examiners help an organization identify its strengths and opportunities for improvement. The examining team develops a feedback report to the applicant organization, allowing them to continue on their journey towards world-class performance.
