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:

GPUG All Star Awards

The highest award given in your GPUG community, the All Star Award recognizes GPUG members who have a passion for Dynamics GP and have made significant contributions of their time and expertise to the GPUG community. All-Stars are nominated and voted on by the community and provide a lifetime All-Star designation to award recipients!

Congratulations to your newest GPUG All-Stars:

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.

Congratulations to the 2018 Richard Whaley Academy Award Recipient:
