AACPM Awards

THE ASKEW AWARD

The George C. Askew Award is given annually to an individual (or individuals) deemed to have completed an exemplary Certified Public Manager Capstone Project for the year. It was created by the American Academy of Certified Public Managers® to recognize outstanding projects throughout the country and was named in honor of George C. Askew who, by virtue of being the first named called in the first CPM graduation ceremony in Georgia in 1976, became the first individual to be certified by a Certified Public Manager® program.  Each CPM Program, through its director, may nominate a capstone project to be given the award for its local program.

Program Directors should submit their program nominee to the American Academy of Certified Public Managers, (AACPM) prior to the program graduation. The award winner receives a brass medallion that describes the spirit of the award. One medallion is supplied by the AACPM, if the project is a group project the local program bears to cost of extra medallions.  2019 Askew Award Recipients>>
