BCNU Leadership Awards
Thank you for nominating your fellow members in the 2024 BCNU Leadership Awards - good luck to all nominees!
Award recipients will be announced here during National Nursing Week: May 6-12, 2024.
About the Awards
The Excellence in Leadership and Advocacy Award honours a member who has made a difference to the health and well-being of their community, and to their profession through leadership, activism or social justice efforts.
The NU Leader Award honours a student member, or member with under five years nursing experience, who has demonstrated outstanding achievements in BCNU-focused advocacy and activism, and who embodies Union values.
Each award includes $1,000 and a beautiful, personalized keepsake featuring original artwork.
Nominees are current and active BCNU members or student members in good standing and are nominated by fellow BCNU members. Recipients are selected at the sole discretion of the BCNU Leadership Awards selection committee based on the nomination supporting materials that provide examples of how nominee meets award criteria, and how nominees demonstrate BCNU core values: collectivity, democracy, equality, excellence, integrity, social justice and solidarity.
