2020 Awards of Excellence Nominees

In every profession, there are those who stand out, who shine brighter. They work hard to lead better, learn more to teach clearer, care more to serve broader.

Every year, the Awards of Excellence honour the stars among Alberta’s Licensed Practical Nurses and those healthcare leaders who support the practical nurse profession.

In 2020, the College of Licensed Practical Nurses of Alberta graciously handed over the Awards of Excellence to be managed by the Fredrickson-McGregor Education Foundation for LPNs. The Foundation’s Selection Committee would like to express appreciation of all those who took the time to nominate someone deserving.

Congratulations to all the 2020 Awards of Excellence nominees. The winners will be announced later this year.

For many years, this announcement would also include the recipients of the David King Educational Bursary, which has now been retired.

LPNs interested in financial support for continuing education are encouraged to access the Foundation’s Education Grants. Up to $1000 per year is available to eligible LPNs.
