In January of this year, the NCAI board of directors approved the creation of chapter awards at our first quarter board meeting. The NCAI Chapter Awards recognize outstanding service that benefits both the profession and our members. Each award winner will receive a framed certificate, public recognition across all NCAI media platforms, a press release for distribution to local media, and one complimentary Continuing Education (CE) registration (up to 7 hours) to be used within the following year.

2025 NCAI Chapter Awards Open for Nomination
NCAI Leadership Award
This prestigious award honors an individual or group whose dedication to the chapter over the preceding five years has demonstrated unwavering commitment to the long-term success of the organization. Qualifying activities may include, but are not limited to, chairing or serving on committees, holding a position on the Board of Directors, serving as an executive officer or regional representative, teaching for the chapter (with or without CE credit), securing significant sponsorships, engaging in legislative or advocacy efforts, building collaborative relationships with other organizations, and representing the chapter at professional events. The recipient should have consistently contributed to the advancement and support of the chapter’s mission.
NCAI Impact Award
This award is presented to an individual whose service at the regional or national level of the Appraisal Institute (or other related professional organizations) has had a transformative and measurable impact on the profession and North Carolina appraisers. This award recognizes those who have used national and regional platforms to push the profession forward, create new opportunities, foster meaningful dialogues, contribute to the body of knowledge, or inspire significant change. Serving in leadership roles such as a national committee chair or board member is beneficial but not required. This award is intended to be highly competitive and should be awarded only when there is clear, transformative impact.
NCAI Innovator’s Award
This award recognizes the individual or group who has introduced and successfully executed the most innovative idea or initiative for the chapter in the past year. This may include developing a new event, identifying, and pursuing new opportunities for the chapter, restructuring or creating committees that address specific needs, generating new sources of revenue, increasing recognition and public relations efforts, or improving member engagement. The recipient should have demonstrated creativity and initiative in driving the chapter’s success through innovation.
