Every year, thousands of conversations take place in the GPUG online communities, at chapter meetings, in virtual programming and at GPUG conferences and events. We are honored to recognize your GPUG community leaders who go above and beyond to share their knowledge and experiences to serve their Dynamics GP peers. The following annual volunteer recognition awards were announced and presented to deserving recipients at GPUG Summit Phoenix:

Chapter of the Year Awards
The Chapter of the Year award recognizes a successful local GPUG chapter and is based on the size of the Chapter, meeting attendance, and the involvement of the Chapter Leaders to drive content, promotion and engagement.
Congratulations to the 2018 GPUG Chapter of the Year:

Florida (Jacksonville)
Leaders: Tasha Orange, Laureen Mobley, and Barbara Gavron
Richard Whaley Academy Award
Richard Whaley was an author and publisher, long time GPUG Member, GPUG All Star, and well-respected Academy instructor, who selflessly contributed countless hours of his time and talents to his GPUG Academy students. Whaley passed away July 1, 2014, and this award was created to honor Richard by carrying on his legacy. An award in Richard's honor is a way for GPUG and the community to recognize others who have been influenced by his example.

Aleiha Hanson, Royal Basket Trucks, Inc.
GPUG Professional Certificates include: PCAP – Accounts Payable, PCAR – Accounts Receivable, PCBI - Business Intelligence
