FSA Distinguished Alumni Award (DAA) 2015
January 23, 2015
Thank you to everyone who nominated a colleague – the winner will be announced soon!
The FSA Distinguished Alumni Award (DAA) is a partnership with the BCIT’s Distinguished Alumni Awards. Each year the Alumni Association selects recipients from BCIT alumni who have demonstrated achievement/leadership to receive these awards. In 2014 the FSA began to partner with the Alumni Association to present an additional DAA to an FSA member who is an alumnus of BCIT and demonstrates excellence in their work at BCIT.
Our first recipient, in 2014, of the award was Thomas Abbuhl find out more about Thomas on our blog and watch his DAA video!
We hope that you will take the time to consider who among your colleagues may be eligible and deserving of this award and nominate them today!
