NJCPA launches Ovation Awards

The New Jersey Society of CPAs has launched its Ovation Awards to "honor superstars whose exemplary efforts and stellar achievements are advancing New Jersey’s accounting profession."

The Ovation Awards include seven categories: Emerging Leaders; Diversity, Equity & Inclusion; Innovation; Exceptional Educators; Women to Watch; Impact; and Lifetime Leader. The awards will honor both NJCPA members and nonmembers contributing to the accounting profession.

“The Ovation Awards are a wonderful way to praise outstanding professionals who have made a significant impact on the accounting profession," stated Ralph Thomas, CEO and executive director of the NJCPA. "Many give so much to the community on a daily basis; it’s great to recognize all that they do."
