2011 IPAC Saskatchewan Call For Nominations: Lieutenant Governor's Award and Promising New Professional Award

Each year, IPAC honours a worthy recipient with the Lieutenant Governor’s Award for distinguished public service. At the same time, we also honour the public service of the future with awards for promising new professionals.

The Lieutenant Governor’s Award of the Saskatchewan Regional Group of the Institute of Public Administration of Canada (IPAC) recognizes a person or work team that has demonstrated distinctive leadership and exceptional achievement in public administration in Saskatchewan. The Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan will present this award in September 2011 during a ceremony at Government House hosted by the Saskatchewan Regional Group of IPAC.

Previous recipients of this prestigious award include meritorious public servants from all levels of government and a variety of fields of interest and public sector specialization across Saskatchewan.

The Promising New Professional Award recognizes individuals or teams of individuals new to the public service (less than five years of cumulative experience in public service) who:

• demonstrate leadership potential within the public service;
• demonstrate the ideals and values of public administration; and
• demonstrate the ability and potential to continue and constantly improve upon the sound work of public administration and public servants in Saskatchewan.

This award will be presented at Government House, in September 2011.
