2025 NACDEP Awards are NOW OPEN

Award Nominations are being accepted until 11:59 PM ET on Tuesday, February 18, 2025.

Winners will be honored at a ceremony at the NACDEP Conference, June 9-12, 2025 in Charleston, WV. 

What's New this year? 

  • Achievement in Collaboration Award - To recognize a NACDEP member who has demonstrated a long-term commitment to cross-institutional collaboration. 
  • Distinguished Career Award – Up to 3 national awards will be given if there are multiple nominees who earn a score of 90 or above. If nobody achieves a score of 90+, one winner will be awarded as in the past, as long as they meet the minimum score requirement (75+).  

All application materials will be submitted through a Qualtrics survey, helping ensure that each nomination meets formatting guidelines, which helps support successful nominations and simplifies the review process. Review the Awards Descriptions & Application Procedures linked below for details.

There are character limits incorporated into the Nomination form to help prevent non-compliance with nomination guidelines. Nominations submitted that do not comply with award guidelines outlined in the Award Descriptions and Application Procedures will not be eligible for review.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Recognition Committee. We look forward to seeing all the good work done over the last year by NACDEP members.
