The Chapter Excellence Awards (CEA) program was established in 1974 to recognize and reward AMA professional chapters’ outstanding leadership, membership, programming, finance, and communications achievements. Each summer, every chapter has the opportunity to submit a CEA entry, which serves as a critical historical record of chapter operations for the prior year that empowers future local leaders to build on past successes.
The awards below showcase the outstanding work of our chapters in the 2024-25 chapter year. The decisions and announcements were made in the subsequent fiscal chapter year.
