Nominations sought for CompTIA Member of the Year, ChannelChangers and AWIT Spotlight Awards

Downers Grove, Ill. – CompTIA, the leading technology industry association, said today it is accepting nominations for several awards presented each year to association members and tech industry leaders.

“Each year there are individuals whose commitment, contributions, passion and spirit on behalf of CompTIA and the tech industry are worthy of special recognition,” said Nancy Hammervik, executive vice president for industry relations at CompTIA. “We’re pleased to invite our members, partners and friends across the industry to nominate someone they know and respect for these prestigious awards.”

CompTIA is accepting nominations for three industry awards.

The CompTIA Member of the Year Award recognizes a single member who, in the past year, has demonstrated outstanding service and impact through his or her commitment, passion, professionalism and leadership in assisting CompTIA’s mission. (Deadline for nominations: May 15)

The CompTIA ChannelChanger Awards, presented by the CompTIA Future Leaders Community, recognize future leaders who are making their mark within a CompTIA member company, have shown success as an entrepreneur, or have made an industry impact in some demonstrable way. (Deadline for nominations: May 15)

The Advancing Women in Technology (AWIT) Spotlight Awards recognize female leadership, guidance, commitment to community and excellence in the technology industry. The goal is to spotlight individuals who are shining examples of the leaders we all aspire to be. (Deadline for nominations: June 1)

Award winners in each of these three categories will be recognized at ChannelCon 2019 August 5 – 7 in Las Vegas.
