All materials submitted become the property of the Awards Committee.

To represent the range of diversity and experience in ACES membership, the Awards Committee encourages members to participate in one role per year: either nominator or nominee. Please note that Awards Committee members and members of the ACES Executive Council may not be involved in the nomination process or write letters of recommendation for nominees.

The following will NOT be accepted: DVDs or videos, individual or separated letters, incomplete packets, and faxed materials.

Reminder- It is the job of the nominator to make sure all materials are submitted correctly, and the packet is complete. Incomplete packets will not be considered or reviewed.
