Awards
Council of Fellows
Fellowship is among the highest honors the ASLA bestows on members and recognizes the contributions of these individuals to their profession and society at large based on their works, leadership and management, knowledge, and service. The designation of Fellow is conferred on individuals in recognition of exceptional accomplishments over a sustained period of time. Individuals considered for this distinction must be full members of ASLA in good standing for at least ten years and must be recommended to the Council of Fellows by the Executive Committee of their local chapter, the Executive Committee of the ASLA, or the Executive Committee of the Council of Fellows.
Announcements
The call for 2025 nominations is now open and will close February 1, 2025. Read through Eligibility, Categories, Schedules, and Guidelines for instructions. Templates are available under the Nomination Template and Sample Nominations section. Nominations must be submitted through the online portal.
Chapters have received a list of all eligible members for nomination earlier this summer and may begin preparing nominations.
New is the ability to submit images with the Knowledge, Leadership/Management, and Service
categories. For these categories, a nominee should submit up to 10 images relevant
to their nomination. The Works category
still requires a 20-image presentation. In addition, the category descriptions,
criteria for jury review, and submission requirements have been edited for
clarity. The templates for submission have not changed.
On October 27, 2023, we presented Demystifying the Fellows Nomination Process, a webinar to learn what you need to know if you are interested in being nominated and best practices on preparing nominations. The goal of the webinar is to increase transparency in the process and to encourage nominees who reflect the diversity of the profession. Please watch!
Please contact Curt Millay (cmillay@asla.org) if you have any questions.
