The ACCED-I Awards & Recognition program celebrates individuals and institutions that set the standard of excellence each year. Receiving an ACCED-I Award not only brings recognition within the collegiate conference and event industry but also at your institution. By honoring outstanding service, we elevate our profession and institutional roles.

Eligibility:

• Any ACCED-I member in good standing can be nominated.
• Members of the Recognition Action Team cannot make nominations.
• Current Board members are ineligible for nominations during their term, with noted exceptions.

Nomination Review: 
The Recognition Action Team reviews nominations and selects award recipients. The committee reserves the right not to select a recipient if nominees do not meet the qualifications or criteria.

Recognition: 
Awards are presented at the ACCED-I Annual Conference. Candidates are notified of nominations beforehand and do not need to be present to receive an award. Recipients receive a keepsake and a press release recognizing their achievement, which is also sent to their supervisor.
