The CAS wants to recognize significant volunteer contributions and we need your help. Please nominate a worthy CAS volunteer for the 2015 Above & Beyond Achievement Award (ABAA), the 2015 New Members Award (NMA), or the 2015 Matthew Rodermund Memorial Lifetime Service Award.
The ABAA is made annually to CAS members who have made a contribution that is clearly outside of expected volunteer responsibilities and duties. Every CAS member who is not a current board member or officer is eligible to receive this award. Keep in mind that an extraordinary effort can be shown in an assignment of limited scope as well as on a larger task.
The NMA recognizes significant volunteer contributions by members within five years of receiving their most recent credential. New members are a valuable volunteering resource for the CAS and this award was created to recognize their efforts.
The Matthew Rodermund Service Award was created to recognize CAS members who have made noteworthy volunteer contributions to the actuarial profession over the course of a career. The award was established in 1990 in honor of Matt Rodermund’s years of CAS volunteer service. Volunteer contributions could include committee involvement, participation in CAS meetings and seminars, volunteer efforts for Regional Affiliates or special interest sections, and involvement with other actuarial organizations. Past presidents are not eligible.
Nominations are due by June 30, 2015, and the winners will be announced at the 2015 CAS Annual Meeting in Philadelphia. Nomination forms can be found at http://www.casact.org/volunteer. Send nominations and direct any questions to me at mcaruso@casact.org.
Matt Caruso is the membership and volunteer manager for the CAS.
