Staff Peer Awards
2011 Nomination Form

 

Submission Deadline is February 25, 2011

The ABA Staff Peer Award Program is an opportunity for ABA staff professionals to recognize the work of their colleagues.  Awards are presented annually in the categories listed below.  For a list of ABA families and units, click here.

Participation in the program is limited to ABA staff, which means that only nominations from staff will be considered, and only staff members are eligible for award.  Staff nominators may select only one nominee for each award category, and one category for each nominee. Also, don’t forget the unsung heroes in your office.  You know who they are; those people who aren’t as noticeable as others, but can always be counted on to get the job done!

A team of 2010 Staff Peer Award recipients and ABA family representatives will make recommendations for award to the Vice President for Administration, who will make the final selections.
