The Askew Award is given in honor of George C. Askew, who was the first individual to be certified by a Certified Public Managers® program.  CPM student projects are reviewed against seven individual grading criteria. The highest-scoring projects are submitted by the Office of Government Training (OGT), and the KSCPM Award Committee select "the best of the best" to submit to the American Academy of Certified Public Managers® (AACPM) as the Kentucky winner.  This award is presented annually by the AACPM to recognize high quality CPM projects.  Kentucky Askew Award winners are honored by KSCPM with:

  • Free one-year membership in the KSCPM and the AACPM 

  • Registration paid for the fall KSCPM seminar*

  • Registration fees paid for the AACPM annual symposium*

  • Paid KSCPM luncheons

*Based on availability of Society funds at the time of selection.
