The New Jersey Society of CPAs is accepting nominations for its 2022 Ovation Awards, which look to recognize local professionals who "demonstrate exceptional work in or support of New Jersey’s accounting profession."
The yearly awards honor professionals across seven categories: Emerging Leaders; Diversity, Equity & Inclusion; Innovation; Exceptional Educators; Women to Watch; Impact; and Lifetime Leader.
Individuals are nominated by their peers, members of the local community and the NJCPA for their contributions in advancing the accounting profession.
“Two years into the COVID-19 pandemic, we are reminded of the great strides that CPAs and other accounting professionals have made to keep their organizations and their clients’ businesses afloat, but their untiring commitment to assist their fellow colleagues and give back to their towns and communities should also be appreciated,” said NJCPA CEO and executive director Ralph Albert Thomas in a statement.
Nominations are being accepted through April 29. Multiple entries are allowed, as well as self-nominations. However, only NJCPA members are eligible for the Emerging Leader, Women to Watch and Lifetime Leader categories. Winners will be announced during the 2022 NJCPA Convention & Expo on June 16 at the Borgata in Atlantic City.
