Chapter of the Year

Chapter of the Year recognizes chapters that have done an exceptional job of supporting ISSA’s mission, serving their member communities and advancing the field. Chapters are evaluated across 6 program and activity categories, each outlined in the attached Nomination Form below.

Awards Are Made in 4 Categories

• Fewer than 50 members (Small Chapter)
• 50-199 members (Medium Chapter)
• More than 200 members (Large Chapter)
• Non-US Chapter (International Chapter)

Nominations must be made on the official form by any member in good standing.

Chapters of the Year Receive

• A personalized Award to display
• Feature article in the ISSA Journal
• Listing on the association’s website
• A Chapter of the Year icon for display on the chapter website or in marketing materials

Although any member may nominate their chapter, it is recommended that a single nomination in this category be made by the chapter's Board of Directors to best reflect the full scope of your chapter's programming. Multiple nomination packages with contradictory data may reduce your chances. Be aware that the spectrum of activities varies by chapter and it is unlikely any chapter will have programs in all of these areas. Answer the questions in the PDF application that apply to your chapter. Your chapter will not be eliminated from consideration if you skip individual questions.
