The Becky Dinwoodie Governance Professional Impact Award recognizes a Canadian university governance professional who leads with the same warmth, integrity, and collegiality Becky brought to this profession. If you know someone who supports and mentors their governance colleagues, upholds high professional standards, and has made a genuine impact on the people around them, we’d love to hear about it. Nominations are reviewed by a selection committee each fall, with the recipient announced the following spring.

Nominations for the Becky Dinwoodie Governance Professional Impact Award open October 1st.

Please check back then to submit your nomination. We look forward to hearing about the governance professionals who've made a difference in your community.
