Alpha Kappa Psi Awards and Recognition

Alpha Kappa Psi awards are an opportunity. It is an opportunity to provide thanks to those volunteers who have served your chapter. It is an opportunity to create positive public relations and certain media attention. Most importantly, it provides an opportunity to create strong, lasting relationships.

Because many of our awards can recognize both members and non-members, chapters can use award ceremonies and banquets to spotlight accomplishments of brothers and non-brothers while spreading good will throughout the university and/or community.

A strong chapter can build relationships with members of your local community with the Civic Service Award or Alma Mater Award. The Scholarship Award allows AKPsi to reach out to the entire student body while recognizing the member of the senior class who achieved the highest grade point average.

Honorary and Faculty memberships have historically provided a way for chapters to recruit and recognize instructors and community leaders who serve as volunteer advisors.

The possibilities are endless! Get creative and work to develop an awards program that will become a tradition not only in your chapter but in the community. Your chapter can save time and money on certificates by ordering professional certificates from the Heritage Center.
