Developing Leader Award

The YEA Committee is excited to announce the Developing Leader Award. This award is designed to recognize those members who started their involvement as soon as they joined ASHRAE. In the spirit of the ASHRAE Distinguished/Exceptional Service Award, this award is earned by earning points in a variety of categories. More involvement = more points!

In order to qualify for the award, you must meet the following criteria:

  1. You must earn a minimum of 24 points within either:
    1. Five (5) years of your graduation date if you joined ASHRAE as a Student member; or
    2. Five (5) years of your ASHRAE join date if you joined ASHRAE as an Affiliate, Associate or Member.
  2. You must still qualify as a YEA member, meaning you were 35 years of age or younger at the start of the current Society Year.
