The chapter congratulates Keegan Hill, who was selected by AFCEA International as a Regional Distinguished Young AFCEAN. He will go up against other regional winners during the AFCEA West conference for national recognition. Former Young AFCEAN recipients have included Casey Weinstein, Andrea Kunk, Brenda Colton and Clifford Nelson. The Distinguished Young AFCEAN Award recognizes and rewards exceptional performance in four areas: leadership and guidance for the Young AFCEAN program; superior technical achievement in the professional arena; a record of going "above and beyond" at the local AFCEA chapter or region level; and mentoring provided for other Young AFCEANs. The Distinguished Young AFCEAN nominations are graded on the following: - Specific ways the nominee provided leadership and guidance for the Young AFCEAN program at the chapter or regional level - Superior technical achievement in the professional arena - The impact the nominee's other contributions have had on their chapter and the AFCEA community - Mentoring that the nominee provided for others during the award year |
