ISA Ontario Awards
Awards Nomination Process
Any ISA Ontario member, in good standing, may submit a nomination for an award. Each award has its own unique criteria. Read over the criteria carefully. Be sure to thoroughly describe and document the candidate’s qualifications as they relate to the criteria.
The Awards Committee will recommend award recipients solely on the contents of the written nominations. This will ensure that the selection process is objective. The committee’s decisions will be based upon whether the person nominated meets the award criteria as outlined in the nomination. The ISAO Board of Directors makes the final decision on awards.
Nominations are to be e-mailed to info@isaontario.com as an attachment. Use the e-mail subject line: “Award Nomination.” Please send only one nomination per e-mail. Nominations may also be sent by regular mail to the ISAO office. (E-mail is preferred.)
The nomination deadline is October 15, annually.
Late nominations will not be considered.
