During the 2025 ASPE Tech Symposium Lunch & Awards Ceremony on Saturday, Sept. 27, ASPE honored numerous local Chapters and members for their efforts in community outreach and membership services for the 2024–2025 year. The most critical element of ASPE, the one that makes the Society grow and prosper, is its local Chapters — and through the Chapters, the membership. This year, Chapters were honored for their successful membership recruitment and retention efforts, as well as their extraordinary contributions made on behalf of the Society. Individual members also were recognized for their volunteerism in multiple leadership positions.
