The Association for Accounting Administration presents several types of awards to members for dedication and service to not only the Association but to their firms.
A.C.E. Award
(formerly Firm Administrator of the Year Award)
This annual award is currently co-sponsored with the Association for Accounting Administration (AAA) by CPA Practice Management Forum. This prestigious award has been given to some of the country's most experienced and respected administrators since its inception in 1989.
Recipients receive a one-year complimentary AAA membership, free attendance at the next year’s AAA National Conference, a handsome plaque provided by CPA Practice Management Forum, and a one year subscription to one of CCH's accounting newsletters.
The ACE Award -- which stands for Achievement, Commitment and Excellence -- was formerly known as the Accounting Firm Administrator of the Year Award. Former winners of the award have held titles such as firm administrator, director of administration, chief operating officer, chief financial officer and chief executive officer.
Regardless of the title, nominees must hold a senior-level administration position for a public accounting firm. Criteria for selection focus on leadership and the individual's strategic impact on the firm's profit and growth. Strong candidates for the ACE Award will have made major contributions to their firms by implementing and overseeing programs that:
- contribute to the firm's long-term growth;
- help the firm meet its strategic goals;
- improve firm profitability;
- help create an employee-friendly culture that encourages long-term staff retention; and
- emphasize the value of entrepreneurship, leadership, continuous learning, marketing and client service skills.
The ACE Award will be presented at AAA's annual Practice Management Conference, June 17-20, 2008 in Dallas, Texas..
