PIBC 2021 Honourary & Life Member Recognitions

PIBC's Awards & Recognition Committee and Board are seeking your input and suggestions for two distinguished opportunities to recognize and honour both:
- Individuals outside of the Institute's membership who have contributed significantly to planning or to the Institute (Honourary Membership)
- Accomplished, long-serving professional members of the Institute worthy of special distinction (Life Member designation)
