PROFESSIONAL DESIGNATION NEWS

What a year! I don’t know about you, but I don’t think I’ll miss the chaos and uncertainty of 2020! In spite of that, the FCIAAO continued it’s un- precedented success - and that shouldn’t be overlooked. I’m optimistic that 2021 will provide more opportunities for us to congregate and re- gain normalcy. Within the next month (or so) I will begin notifying chapter members who are eligible to receive the Tony Hodge Educational Award at the 2021 FCIAAO Annual Conference. The FCIAAO Procedural Rules (as amended) specify eligibility of the award, as follows:

The Tony Hodge Educational Award may be granted to FCIAAO regular members who earn their IAAO designations. The Executive Board shall recognize newly designated members at the successive FCI- AAO Annual Conference and may present them with a $500 check. To be eligible, new designees must be a FCIAAO member in good standing for at least 12 consecutive months prior to being awarded their designation and receiving the award. New designees must provide a copy of IAAO’s letter conferring the designation, or a copy of the designation certificate, to the PDC Chairman, or a member of the PDC. Tony Hodge recipients must be registered for the respective annual conference to be eligible to participate in the awards presentation. Tracy Drake, CAE, ASA, RES, AAS, CFE

New designees should email a copy of IAAO’s letter conferring the designation (or certificate) to tdrake@ccpao.com . Don’t miss out!

DID YOU KNOW?

Would you like to be recognized for your experience and dedication to the assessing profession, but not quite ready for a professional designation? The IAAO Professional Member Program acknowledges the efforts of members who meet the following criteria:

•IAAO member in good standing with a minimum of three years experience in the assessing profes- sion and holding no IAAO professional designation

•Successful completion of 150 hours of IAAO courses, workshops, and seminars, including Work- shop 171 (no substitutions or course waivers will be accepted)
