Because this Distinci?n was created after the Decreto Ley #30 the award critaria is not in that document.

However it seems that it is printed on the inside of the award document itself.

Here is a rough translation.

Awarded in recognition of merit and work for the enrichment of education and the promotion of work in the educational field and has kept an exemplary and matching attitude to revolutionary principles.

Regards Eddie

Interesting...

the ribbon bar has the flat "C" catch that we associate (perhaps incorrectly) with EARLY awards-- since it is a direct DDR clone. I wonder-- since the ribbons were identical--whether that is the ribbon bar for 15 Years Service in the Ministry of the Interior?

Possible of course Rick,

I checked through my other Medals and bars and found the same with the Jesus Menendez Medal though.
