CAREER ACHIEVEMENT


The Career Achievement Award Program, sponsored each year by AWN, honors women who have achieved a major career advancement or recognition in their profession within the preceding calendar year.  The program was initiated in 1981 to honor women and encourage them to seek higher career goals.  It is a way to recognize firms or organizations which support and promote women. 

LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT

The Lifetime Achievement Award is reserved for women in the region who have achieved milestones in a profession or career over an extended period of time.  This is an award adopted by the AWN Board of Directors in 1988.  It is a tool for recognizing women whose accomplishments transcend the Career Achievement Award category.
