Guide for Nominating C&C Prize Candidate(s)
Starting in fiscal year 2024, the C&C Prize will continue to honor up to three individuals per prize as done previously, while also introducing a category to recognize a single team for each prize. Any given prize must go to either up to three individuals or one team, not a combination of both.
This prize is awarded to individuals who have made significant contributions, either directly or in a leadership role, to the achievement being recognized. When multiple people contributed to the achievement, up to three individuals may be honored with one prize. Each recipient is given a certificate, a plaque, and a cash award that will be evenly distributed among the recipients.
This prize is awarded to a team whose members have effectively worked together to reach common goals, drawing on each member’s strengths to achieve significant milestones that merit this recognition. Up to 10 key team members who have made significant contributions will be recognized by name in conjunction with their team's designation. The team will receive an award certificate, a plaque, and a cash award that will be evenly distributed among key team members. At the C&C Prize Ceremony, three team members will be invited as representatives to accept the certificate and prizes on behalf of their team.
