  • Henning Award Recipients

    At its 2008 Professional Development Conference to be held in Columbus, Ohio, the American Academy of Certified Public Managers® (AACPM) will recognize one active Fellow whose contributions to public sector management, their CPM Society and the Academy at both the local and national level are judged most exemplary of the CPM image and philosophy. 

    The concept of a professional excellence award was first proposed by the Academy in the late 1980’s and was subsequently named in honor of Kenneth K. Henning, whose vision of a quality management development program tailored to the needs of state government resulted in the design and implementation of the Certified Public Manager® concept and the establishment of the Georgia Certified Public Manager® Program, the American Academy of Certified Public Manager® Program, and the movement of the Certified Public Manager® concept in many other locales.  The vision and leadership displayed by Mr. Henning remain to this day embodied in both the American Academy and the Certified Public Manager® Programs in more than 25 state and local jurisdictions.  His dedication and belief in improving and strengthening public service remains a legacy that the Academy is proud to honor annually with the presentation of the Henning Award.

Henning Award Nominees

  • Askew Recipients
    Those who have been acknowledged for demonstrating exemplary work in the completion of their projects while pursuing their certification.  These awards are named for George C. Askew, recognized as the first person to receive CPM certification (by virtue of his last name) at the first graduation ceremony in Georgia in 1976.  Askew was a leader at both the local and national levels in the early days of the organizations.  These awards are presented to those selected by each CPM program and are given, as stated on the medallion, “For the utilization of management practices exemplifying the philosophy of the American Academy of Certified Public Managers in the completion of an exceptional curriculum project.” 
  • Fran W. Wilkinson Scholarship Recipients
    Those members who have received the Academy’s annual scholarships while in pursuit of a career in public management.  These scholarships are named for Fran W. Wilkinson, the 1983 President of the Georgia CPM Society and the 1987 Chair of the National CPM Consortium, who died in 1990.  In 1994, the Academy voted to name the existing scholarship program after Wilkinson as a token of remembrance, affection, and esteem.
