Nominations

Nominations recognize outstanding pharmacists, technicians, student pharmacists, and industry advocates. You can even nominate yourself!

You are encouraged to nominate someone even if you have nominated that same person in previous years. The applicant who was not a finalist one year could become the winner another. If you nominated someone for the 2016 awards or after, you won’t need to create a new account to use the secure nomination site. If you’ve never nominated someone, don’t worry. Creating an account is easy and free.

There will be three finalists in 10 categories, and one pharmacist winner will be named the 2020 Next-Generation Pharmacist, the program’s top honor. This winner will also be featured on the cover of Pharmacy Times.
