Criteria

I. PURPOSE

The success of the APT US & C depends upon the degree of participation of its individual members; their commitment to excellence and motivation to carry out the purposes of the Association as set forth in the By-Laws. The APT US & C Service Award program is, therefore, established to encourage and recognize the outstanding voluntary participation and achievement of association members in furthering the purposes of the Association.

II. ELIGIBILITY

Association members are eligible for nomination for the APT US & C service award for accomplishments or work performed in conjunction with current or prior assignments as a member of any standing or special committee or subcommittee of APT US & C. The APT US & C Board of Directors are not eligible.

III. CRITERIA FOR AWARD

The basic criterion for the Award is the candidate’s contribution to improving the effectiveness and productivity of the Association. Examples of criteria that may be used include, but are not limited to any one or more of the following: fundraising, innovation, initiative, public relations, dedication, outstanding service or achievement, membership recruitment, promotion of state chapters, etc.

Nominations must be made on the application form. Applications should be returned to the Chairman of the Service Award Sub-Committee.

C. Nomination Dates
