Dear CPTSC Colleagues:
The 2026 CPTSC Distinguished Service Selection Committee (DSSC) invites CPTSC members to forward names of persons whom they deem worthy of CPTSC’s Distinguished Service Award (DSA) for service to the organization. The Distinguished Service Award is the highest honor for members of CPTSC and is meant to recognize someone who has distinguished themselves and the organization through their service.
DSA nominees must be current CPTSC members to be eligible for the award. Sitting officers and voting members of the CPTSC executive committee are ineligible for the DSA while serving. For further eligibility criteria and a list of former honorees, see https://cptsc.org/resources/service-awards/.
To submit a nomination or to self-nominate, please e-mail the DSSC Chair at tharon by Wed., July 15th. The initial nomination need not be lengthy and should include only the person’s name and a simple statement/rationale for their nomination. The DSSC members will verify the nominee’s membership in CPTSC, so you don’t need to take that into consideration when making your nomination.
Thank you!
On behalf of the DSSC,
Dr. Tharon Howard,
CPTSC Immediate Past President & DSSC Chair
