Honors & Awards

Fellowship is among the highest honors the ASLA bestows on members and recognizes the contributions of these individuals to their profession and society at large based on their works, leadership and management, knowledge, and service. The designation of Fellow is conferred on individuals in recognition of exceptional accomplishments over a sustained period of time. Individuals considered for this distinction must be full members of ASLA in good standing for at least ten years and must be recommended to the Council of Fellows by the Executive Committee of their local chapter, the Executive Committee of the ASLA, or the Executive Committee of the Council of Fellows.

The 2020 call for nominations is now closed. All candidates and chapters have been notified of the results. The class of 2020 will be recognized at a virtual event in the fall.  The nomination cycle for next year will open in late September 2020 and will close on January 31, 2021.  List of members eligible to be nominated are being sent to chapters over the summer.
