PPFA Nominations
The nominations process will open on March 5, 2026. You may self-nominate, or a colleague may nominate you. If nominated by a colleague, you will still need to submit a statement of interest for the ballot. If you aren't sure if this is the right experience for you, or if it's not the right time, consider nominating a well-deserving peer! If nominating a colleague, we highly recommend you reach out to them and gauge their interest prior to submitting a nomination form.
