The STC Chicago Community has received the 2008-2009 Community of Distinction Award from the Society for Technical Communication. This prestigious award represents the highest community honor conferred by the Society. We are pleased to be recognized for our efforts here in Chicago. We are especially gratified to have received this award for the third consecutive year. This year, the citation on STC Chicago's award certificate will read:
For your successful membership campaign, your newsletter archives, your use of social media, and your innovative e-Learning and technology showcase.
According to the guidelines for Community Achievement Awards, "the awards not only acknowledge that the obligations of a properly functioning community have been met, but that the winning communities have performed well beyond expectations. The awards program recognizes, in a visible and meaningful manner, communities that demonstrate outstanding, innovative, and sustained performance in advancing the goals of the Society."
Members will accept this year's award during an Honors Banquet at the 2009 Technical Communication Summit in Atlanta on Tuesday, May 5.
